How to Make Banana Lemon Tea Bread
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease and flour a 9x5x3 inch loaf pan.
- In a large bowl, cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) softened unsalted butter and 1 ½ cups granulated sugar for 6 minutes, until light and fluffy.
- Beat in 2 large eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each addition.
- Mash 3 ripe bananas with a fork and add them to the bowl along with 2 tablespoons of lemon juice.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together 2 ½ cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking soda, and ½ teaspoon salt.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Stir in 1 tablespoon lemon zest.
- Pour batter into the prepared loaf pan and spread evenly.
- Bake for 60-75 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let the bread cool in the pan for 15 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
