Banana Pistachio Bread


The basic recipe is that of Nigella Lawson...Pista was an addition from me...I got the idea from Munaty cooking.. Where she replaced raisins with almonds...I did the same with pistas...

So here goes
6 tbsp of melted butter
1/2 cup sugar
1 whole egg
1 egg white
3 ripe bananas mashed to pulp
1 tsp vanilla
1 cup all purpose flour
2 tsp baking pdr
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt( omit if using salted butter)
Some chopped pistachios.






Method
Preheat the oven to 180° .
Mix by sieving,all the dry ingredients except sugar and pista.
In another bowl,beat the egg and eggwhite with the sugar .
Add the mashed bananas and mix till the sugar is dissolved.
Add the vanilla essence and melted butter.
Mix well.
Fold in the dry ingredients slowly but completely :) .
Add half of the pista to the batter.

Pour into a greased loaf mold .sprinkle the rest of the pista.
Pop into the oven for nearly an hour( that's what the recipe says...mine got done in 25 mins...so keep checking on the loaf.

Cool for nearly an hour and slice.
Serve
