Crockpot Banana Nut Bread

This is a recipe, that has been altered just a tad, from 365daysofcrockpot.blogspot.c0m. This is the bread baking nicely...notice all of the moisture on the lid.Bread is very moist. If you increase the size of the picture you may wonder what in the world I have added to the recipe...that would be cracked wheat and pecans.

Original Bread Recipe

1/3 c. butter

2/3 c. sugar

2 eggs

3 ripe bananas

1-3/4 c. whole wheat flour

2 tsp. baking powder

1/4 tsp. salt

1/4 tsp. baking soda

I added 1 tsp. vanilla, and 1/2 c. pecans. I also substituted flour; 1 c. white, and 3/4 c. cracked wheat. The longer this sat on the cutting board the softer the wheat kernals bacame. I liked it, Mel was iffy.

Spray crock with nonstick spray and dust with flour.

In mixing bowl; cream butter until fluffy. Add sugar, eggs, mashed bananas, vanilla; beat til smooth. Sift dry ingredients together then add slowly to cream mixture. Add nuts last.

Pour into crock, cover with lid and bake on high 2 to 3 hours. Test with toothpick for doneness.

Let cool in crock then tip out on plate, cutting board or whatever.
