Banana bread, compared
Make a tableBanana bread recipes disagree most about sugar, and the spread is wider than any other bake in the library — the ripe bananas are already sweet, so how much you add is a judgement rather than a requirement. The other real variable is the tin: a loaf tin and a round tin at the same temperature are twenty minutes apart, which is why the bake times below spread further than the temperatures do.
37 recipes in the library match this dish — the 20 below are a sample. Every figure is one the recipe itself stated; where a recipe said nothing, the cell is empty rather than filled in. Each row links to its table, and every table credits and links its source.
