I hope you enjoy these recipes as much as I do. The best way to cook, I think, is to take an idea and make it your own and that's kind of what I do with the recipes I've brought here. Some are healthy and some are definitely not, but hopefully they will inspire you to spend more time in your kitchen.

Banana Bread

What you need:
  • 2 cups flour (all-purpose or I like to use King Arthur's White Whole Wheat flour)
  • 3/4 cup white granulated sugar
  • 3/4 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 3 overripe bananas, mashed (about 1 1/2 cups)
  • 1/4 cup yogurt (plain, or I like to use vanilla)
  • 2 eggs, beaten
  • 3/4 stick of butter, melted and cooled
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

What to do:

Move rack to lower middle position in oven. Preheat to 350 degrees. In a large bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, baking soda, and salt. In a separate bowl, mix mashed bananas, yogurt, eggs, butter and vanilla. Pour wet into dry and fold together until combined. Put batter into a greased loaf pan and bake for about 45 to 55 minutes.
