Banana Bread

Ingredients

• 1 cup sugar

• 1/3 cup vegetable oil

• 1 cup Quark

• 2 eggs

• 1 1/2 cups banana, mashed

• 1 tsp vanilla extract

• 1 2/3 cups flour

• 1/2 teaspoon baking powder

• 1 teaspoon baking soda

• 1/2 teaspoon salt

• 1 cup chopped walnuts, optional

Instructions

Beat the sugar and oil for a few minutes, then add the eggs, Quark, and vanilla and mix until well blended.

Whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.

Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients all at once and mix just until all the flour is incorporated but don't over-mix. Fold in the walnuts if desired.

Scoop the batter into a loaf pan or mini loaf pan. This batter makes one normal size loaf, or 8 mini loaves.

Bake at 350 for 50 to 60 minutes for a full-size loaf or 25 to 30 minutes for mini loaves.

Allow to cool for 10 minutes in the pan before moving to a cooling rack. 

Best served warm, enjoy!
