(Pan de Plátano)
Category: Quick Breads
Makes 2 (9- × 5- × 3-inch) loaves
When time allows, Mexicans prepare and enjoy leisurely breakfasts at home just as we do. Banana bread fits nicely into a modern Mexican breakfast or brunch. Do as the Mexicans do, and serve this bread with a special plate of tropical fruits (Breakfast Fruit Plate, or Pineapple Boats, see Eggs and Breakfast Dishes).
Undiluted, thawed orange juice concentrate, as called for in the recipe, has a more intense orange flavor than diluted or fresh-squeezed. Fresh-squeezed juice may be used, if you like.
_ cups all-purpose flour
_ teaspoon baking powder
_ teaspoon baking soda
___ teaspoon ground allspice
___ teaspoon salt
_ cups mashed bananas (about 3 medium bananas)
_ cup sugar
_ large eggs, beaten
___ cup butter (1 stick), melted and slightly cooled
_ tablespoons frozen orange juice concentrate, thawed or fresh-squeezed orange juice
_ tablespoon milk
1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
___ cup chopped pecans pieces
1. Preheat oven to 350°. Grease two 9- × 5- × 3- inch loaf pans and line with waxed paper or parchment paper. In a large bowl mix flour, baking powder, baking soda, allspice, and salt. In a medium bowl mix the mashed bananas, sugar, and eggs. Add the butter and mix well. Add the banana mixture to the dry ingredients and mix very well.
2. Stir in the orange juice, milk, and vanilla. Fold in the pecans.
3. Spoon half of the batter into each loaf pan. Bake 15 minutes; then reduce the oven temperature to 325° and bake 45 more minutes, or until browned on top and a tester inserted in the center comes out clean. Cool on a rack before slicing and serving.
