Banana Bread

I figure if you are going to be a doctor and do things like cut people open and move around their innards or mix together all sorts of potentially toxic substances and inject them into someone then to do something as simple as baking should never be feared.  I am tired of the crappy baked goods in this town.  Bagels, banana bread, muffins, etc...they aren't very good or at least they aren't what I think of when I think of those things.  So I'm trying to become better at baking because I'm going to try and make all the things I like and freeze them so I don't have to buy these things in town and become disappointed.  Back in America coffee and muffins were a mainstay of my diet and for the time that I worked in the bagel place I developed a taste for good muffins like cranberry, blueberry, and REAL BRAN muffins with raisins.  Pictured here is my first attempt at making banana bread.  I didn't have the right pan for it and I eyeballed many of the ingredients and used a Nalgene bottle to measure the rest.  My banana bread came out looking more like blonde brownies..."blondies" you could call them.  Surprisingly these were pretty tasty and went quite well with my third pot of coffee.  I brought some upstairs to my friend and his wife the Bavarian Culinary genius and they both approved.....I'm excited and might go buy a muffin pan.
