| I had the most delicious banana bread on vacation. I made some last night but mine is way to dry? I tried increasing the shortening but that did not help.
Do you have a good recipe that is really moist? |

| You're welcome. Hope you like it. |

| Mine is the same as the one Ginger posted and I also have my husband's grandmother's recipe that uses buttermilk. However, we like the sour cream one best. |
|
| I really like cooking with buttermilk. I will have to try both. Thanks to both of you for the recipes. |

| Just posted this on the Cooking Forum. It is very moist due to the oil and the pineapple. Hawaiian Pineapple Banana Bread 3 cups flour Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Combine dry ingredients in a large bowl. Stir in nuts. Combine wet ingredients in another bowl. Mix wet ingredients into the bowl of the dry ingredients. Mix just until all is moistened. Put into two greased and floured regular (8.5") loaf pans. Bake for 1 1/2 hours at 350 degrees. Cool in the pans for 10-15 minutes then turn out onto a rack and cool completely. Makes two loaves.

| LATIN BANANA BREAD Serves 8 Ingredients 1 cup sugar Directions Cream butter with sugar, beat in eggs and mix until fluffy. Sift flour with baking soda and salt. Stir in flour mixture. Stir in mashed bananas, both Crema and vanilla. Stir in nuts and mango pieces. Spoon into greased and floured 9"x5" loaf pan or 2 small loaf pans. Let stand 10 minutes. Bake at 350°F for 30 to 45 minutes. If you can't find the Mexican cremas, sub sour cream for both. And for dried mangos, sub raisins or any chopped dried fruit. Joe |

| Hi loralee, I use Betty Crocker's buttermilk banana bread recipe I got off the internet. It's wonderful - always moist. And if the bananas are good to go but there's no buttermilk in the house, I just make some with milk and vinegar. |

| Ginger, your banana bread recipe looks fabulous. Would it be possible to turn these into muffins? Do you think they could withstand a several day trip in a care package to college? TIA! |

| I think they would as long as the baking time was adjusted. |
