There is more than one Buttermilk Banana Bread recipe; there is also House of Smiths Buttermilk Banana Bread.

From "My Kitchen Cafe:"

Just like my favorite cheesecake, tried-and-true lasagna, incredible french bread rolls, this banana bread is my all-time favorite if it's kind. In fact, it is the only banana bread recipe I've made in years. Unlike the dark-flecked variety of banana bread (which is delicious in it's own right), this bread is light, both in color and texture, and it has a wonderful buttery crust that is my favorite part. Buttermilk is the secret ingredient and I haven't found a substitute (even homemade buttermilk) that works as good as the real thing. Yum - it is delicious! It should come as no surprise that this recipe comes from my Aunt Marilyn!

Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup butter, softened
  • 1 1/2 cups sugar
  • 2 eggs, well beaten
  • 1 cup mashed bananas (I use about 3 average sized bananas)
  • 4 tablespoons buttermilk
  • 1 3/4 cups flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla
  • dash baking soda

Preparation

Cream butter and sugar together. Add eggs, bananas, buttermilk and vanilla. In a separate bowl mix dry ingredients. Add dry ingredients to banana mixture. Mix until combined. Divide batter into greased and floured bread pans and bake at 350 degrees for 50-55 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean. This recipe makes about one large loaf of banana bread (I usually have a bit leftover for a few of my mini bread pans).

Note: 1 9x5" loaf pan has to cook for much longer than the stated time and browns too quickly around the edges. Try two 8x4" pans next time.
