I took out our Mountain View Elementary School cookbook, and found the one banana bread recipe in it (on page 47). I modified the recipe greatly and came up with my own version. Here it is.

Banana Bread

¾ cup not packed brown sugar
½ cup olive oil
1 tsp salt
2 ¼ cup all purpose flour
2 ½ tsp baking powder
½ tsp baking soda
3 large bananas
1 tbsp pure vanilla extract
1 tbsp rum extract
½ cup sour milk (skim milk and white vinegar)
2 large eggs
½ cup chopped walnuts
½ cup semi-sweet chocolate chips

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.

In a large bowl combine the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Stir in the walnuts, and chocolate chips.

In a blender add the banana, brown sugar, rum and vanilla extracts, sour milk, olive oil, and eggs. Blend until smooth. Add the banana mixture to the flour mixture, and stir until smooth. Add the batter to a prepared baking pan. Bake for 20-30 minutes. Enjoy J

The banana bread turned out super yummy. It’s a simple, soft sweet bread with a little crunch from the walnuts.
