easy peasy almost creamy banana bread
This is my adaption of a couple of bread recipes. I've made it super simple and it tastes marvelous. By mixing everything in the stand mixer it goes quicker and I just don't see the need to premix things that are all going into the big mixed to be mixed anyway. This loaf, with no delicate care, rises very well in baking and has a very smooth texture (except for the nuts of course). By the way ,the nuts are optional, if you don't want them don't use them. You can use raisins, candy chips or nothing at all for add in's. Also, you can use all Splenda or use all sugar.
