Slow Cooker Banana Bread

- #15437

ingredients
1 3/4 cup all-purpose flour, sifted
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/3 cup shortening
2/3 cup granulated sugar
2 eggs, well beaten
2 tablespoons dark corn syrup
1 1/2 cup ripe bananas, well mashed
1/2 cup walnut meats (optional)
directions
Sift the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt together. With the electric beater on low, fluff the shortening until soft and creamy in a small bowl. Or beat by hand until fluffy.
Add the sugar gradually. Beat in the eggs and dark corn syrup in a slow stream. With a fork, beat into the shortening a third of the bananas, half the flour, another third of the bananas, the remaining flour, and the last of the bananas. Fold in the walnut meats.
Turn into a greased and floured 1 1/2-quart mold and cover with a loosely fitting plate.
Place the mold on a rack or a trivet in the cooker. Cover the cooker, but prop the lid open a fraction to let excess steam escape. Cook on High for 2 to 3 hours, or until the bread is done.
Cool on a rack for 10 minutes, then turn the bread out of the mold. Dust over with brown sugar and serve warm.

What's the secret ingredient in these cakes? Pudding mix. It not only adds flavor but it gives the cake a richer, creamier texture. No one will know your secret ingredient!
Pumpkins aren't just for pies or Halloween decorations. These large, orange gourds - while naturally sweet - also work well in savory dishes. They pair well with poultry and pork (and especially bacon) and their creamy-when-cooked texture blends easily into soups.

I don't care for breads with nuts so I omitted them. This was exactly like regular oven baked banana bread. Very moist and the right amount of sweetness. I sliced it and served it with honey butter.
This banana bread was excellant !! Never did I think that you could make this in a crockpot. Came out like if it was in the oven. Everyone loved it !!
