  • Subtitles section
  • Hi guys, I'm Laura Vitale.
  • On this episode of Laura in the Kitchen, I'm going to show you how I make my island banana bread.
  • It's just a funny term for a little twist on usual banana bread.
  • So to get started, let's just go over the ingredients.
  • You'll need some ripe mashed bananas, all purpose flour, sugar, sweetened coconut, unsalted butter at room temperature, macadamia nuts, milk, two eggs, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and vanilla extract.
  • That's it!
  • The ingredients are like super fancy schmancy.
  • It's basically my banana bread recipe that I just changed up.
  • You can change it up a thousand different ways.
  • This is just my island version because I put in some coconut, some macadamia nuts on top, and it's really good.
  • So the first thing you want to do is get your oven to 350.
  • Get that ready for you.
  • Second thing you want to do is take a 9 by 5 inch loaf pan, spray it with nonstick cooking spray and lay the bottom with parchment paper.
  • This is really, really old.
  • It's probably like 15 years old, I think.
  • It was given to me by my stepmom's aunt.
  • So there you go.
  • So, what we're going to do is we're going to make this in a large bowl with just a whisk and a spatula, but you can make this with a handheld mixer or in your big KitchenAid mixer.
  • It's up to you.
  • So we're going to cream the butter and the sugar first, and I'm just going to do that with my little handy dandy whisk.
  • It shouldn't take very long.
  • That looks good.
  • I'm now going to add my eggs and my vanilla extract.
  • About a half a teaspoon of that should do fine.
  • And just mix that together.
  • I'm now going to add my mashed up bananas, and make sure that your bananas are like a little bit overripe to the point where, you know, they're like dark brown on the outside and you wouldn't just eat them,
  • You know, as is, but they're incredible to bake with because they're nice and soft and they're really really sweet and their flavor intensifies, so when I see bananas like that in my supermarket, they're usually like 30 cents for like two or three of them,
  • That's when I stack up and then you can put them in the freezer, freeze them up and they act as ice cubes and a fruit when you want to make a smoothie or in a batter.
  • Perfect.
  • I'm going to put most of my coconut in here, leaving some to sprinkle over the top.
  • Just mix that in, just like so.
  • I love coconut, so you can really, you can put as much or as little as you prefer.
  • So I'm actually going to put the whole thing in here, and I'll put a little extra on top later.
  • And now to this, we're just going to add our dry ingredients, which is the flour, the baking powder, baking soda, and the salt, and I'm just going to whisk that together until it's combined.
  • I'm actually going to switch to a spatula to make it easier, and also make sure you don't overwork this, otherwise you'll get really tough, tough banana bread.
  • And I'm going to add in my milk, I'm using part skim because that's just what I use every day, but if you have whole milk, fat free milk, it's fine, you just need a little moisture, that's all.
  • That looks perfect, I'm going to put this into my loaf pan, just like so, make sure you even it out.
  • Now, what I'm going to do is I'm going to hold off on putting the macadamia nuts on top until about 15 minutes before the bread's ready, otherwise they're going to burn.
  • So I'm going to put this in the oven for about 15 minutes to an hour, I'm going to check it at the 15 minute mark, and then we're going to top it, and we'll do that together.
  • My banana bread's been baking for 15 minutes, and now it's about 10 minutes away from being done, so now I'm going to top it with my macadamia nuts.
  • All I'm going to do though, is brush the top with a little melted butter.
  • Why you ask?
  • Well first of all, it's delicious, and second of all, the melted butter acts like glue for the macadamia nuts, otherwise they'll fall all over the place, but we want them to stick to something, and the butter's going to definitely do that.
  • Don't worry that they're going all over the place, so you can just move them around.
  • I'm just going to pop this back into the oven for another 10 minutes, and then we're going to let it cool for a while before we dig in.
  • All in total, my banana bread cooked for about an hour, and I let it cool for 20-25 minutes, and then I just inverted it onto a plate, and I'm just so ready to dig in.
  • And I've been eating all of the macadamia nuts off the top, because they're so delicious and roasted and crispy, and the reason why I don't put them in the middle on the cake is because macadamia nuts are so waxy,
  • That what happens is I don't get that full crispiness.
  • Look at that.
  • I've got to take a bite of this right now.
  • They don't get that crispy, roasted, That is good!
  • Really good.
  • You can taste the coconut, but it's more like a texture thing.
  • It's so good, you just have to try this.
  • I guarantee it, you're really going to like it.
  • It's a basic, basic recipe, you can change it up a thousand different ways.
  • Go to www.laurainthekitchen.com, get the recipe, go ahead and dig in, and make this banana bread.
  • I'll see you next time.
  • Bye bye!
