I’m Not Monkeying Around…

What’s your favorite thing to cook?

I am pretty well versed in the kitchen, in both cooking and baking, but my sweet side always wins out with baking as my forte!

I can knock out a cheesecake that will leave you breathless, produce a Chocolate Chip Peanut Butter cookie that proves how long I successfully used MY Easy Bake Oven, and bake a Strawberry Cream Cheese Cake that will never reveal how many calories are in its delectable depths… but…

I will stand by my secret Banana Bread recipe, as my favorite go to!

It needs to have just the right amount of moisture, so as not to be to cloggy…

Just the perfect inclusion and coating of brown sugar, to make even the crust melt in your mouth…

I like to wait for the bananas to be just at the right place of ripening, that way there is no tart or bitter after bite, but rather a sweet banana flavor that lingers in the mouth for a time… even if you drink milk or coffee with it!

The presenting of the bread for consumption, is just as vital to its success as the mixing and baking, ensuring that there is a fine layer of pure REAL butter spread across its brown sugary coated surface… sublime is the operative word, so I’ve been told…

If you want cookies today, you will need to go find my regular Friday post, because now that I’ve gone and told you about my banana bread, no cookie will work in here…

Here, have some Banana Bread… but mine is for sure better…

  15. On top of the fridge today, I discovered a forgotten relic. It was a banana as black as black can be. I showed it to my mom and told her that I thought it was past expiration. I do like ripened bananas in bread, but that was a bit too far for it.
