Slow Cooker Banana Bread

There is nothing I love more than being able to throw something together in my slow cooker and then having a delicious meal ready a few hours later. This Slow Cooker Banana Bread recipe is a wonder fall delight. You put your ingredients in and about 2 hours later you have banana bread. No fuss, no muss. And your house smells wonderful. It's a perfect fall recipe, although, really—banana bread can be made any time of the year.

Slow Cooker Banana Bread

Ingredients

    5 ripe and/or overripe bananas
    2 1/2 cups flour
    2 tsp. baking powder
    1 tsp. baking soda
    1 can sweetened condensed milk
    2 tsp. pure vanilla extract
    ¼–½ c. walnuts

Slow Cooker Banana Bread Process

Directions

    Mash the bananas and the milk together in a bowl. Add the vanilla extract.
    Mix in the flour, baking powder, and baking soda. Mix well.
    Pour into a parchment lined slow cooker (or grease it very well). Sprinkle the nuts on    the top.
    Place a clean tea towel over the slow cooker bowl and place the lid on top of that.
    Cook on high for 2 hours. Check with a wooden skewer for doneness. If it comes out    clean, it’s ready.

    Enjoy!
