How to Make Banana Apple Bread

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9x5 inch loaf pan.
  2. In a large bowl, cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted margarine until light and fluffy.
  3. Gradually add 1 cup apple juice concentrate, mixing on high speed until well combined.
  4. Beat in 2 large eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition.
  5. In a separate bowl, whisk together 2 cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking soda, 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, ½ teaspoon ground nutmeg, ¼ teaspoon ground cloves, and ½ teaspoon salt.
  6. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, alternating with ½ cup milk, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined.
  7. Stir in 2 cups mashed ripe bananas.
  8. Pour batter into the prepared loaf pan and bake for 50-65 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean. After 45 minutes, cover loosely with foil to prevent over-browning if needed.
  9. Let the bread cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
