Steps:

• Move oven rack to low position so that tops of pans will be in center of oven. Heat oven to 350°F. Grease bottoms only of 2 loaf pans, 8 1/2x4 1/2x2 1/2 inches, or 1 loaf pan, 9x5x3 inches.
• Mix sugar and butter in large bowl. Stir in eggs until well blended. Add bananas, buttermilk and vanilla. Beat until smooth. Stir in flour, baking soda and salt just until moistened. Stir in nuts. Pour into pans.
• Bake 8-inch loaves about 1 hour, 9-inch loaf about 1 1/4 hours, or until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool 10 minutes. Loosen sides of loaves from pans; remove from pans and place top side up on wire rack. Cool completely, about 2 hours, before slicing. Wrap tightly and store at room temperature up to 4 days, or refrigerate up to 10 days.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
• Mix sugar, salt and cinnamon together; combine with sliced apples and bananas.
• In a skillet, brown bread cubes in the butter.
• Fill buttered baking dish with alternate layers of bread cubes and fruit using bread cubes as top and bottom layers.
• Cover dish and bake 30 minutes.
• Remove cover and bake 15 minutes longer or until apples are tender.

Steps:

• Position rack in lover third of oven and preheat to 350°F.
• Get 8x8 baking dish, 9 inch pie plate or 10x6 oblong baking dish.
• Stir the graham crumbs, sugar and butter together. Press half of the crumb mixture into the bottom of the baking dish.
• In a heavy saucepan, bring the milk and vanilla bean to a simmer. If using vanilla extract, add last.
• Mix in a bowl the egg, cusgar, flour, cornstarch and salt.
• Remove vanilla bean, if using. Gradually whisk half of the milk into the egg mix. Then mix this back into the milk in the pan.
• Cook, whisking constantly and scraping the bottom and sides of the pan over medium heat until the center bubbles and the mixture has thickened.
• Remove from heat and stir for another minute to cool. Add vanilla extract now if not using the bean.
• Fold bananas into the hot custard.
• Spoon the banana mixture evenly over the crumbs and cover with the remaining crumb mixture.
• Bake until the top has browned and the filling is warm, 25-30 minutes.
• Let cool on a rack for 20 minutes before serving.
• Spoon into bowls and serve.
• You can top with vanilla ice cream, a fresh strawberry sauce or something you like with it.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350 degrees. Butter a 9-by-5-inch loaf pan and line it with parchment or wax paper, leaving enough paper hanging over the sides to lift the cake out after baking. (This will prevent the topping from breaking when removing the bread from the pan.)
• Prepare the batter: In a medium bowl, combine flour, granulated sugar, cinnamon, baking soda and salt. In a large bowl, using a sturdy whisk, beat together oil, eggs and honey until smooth. Stir in bananas and warm water. Add dry ingredients to egg-oil mixture and stir to blend. Pour batter into prepared pan.
• Make the topping: In a small bowl, mix brown sugar, granulated sugar and cinnamon, using your fingers to break up any lumps. Sprinkle evenly over batter.
• Bake until a tester inserted into the center comes out clean, about 1 hour, checking after 50 minutes. If topping shows signs of burning, reduce heat to 325 degrees.
• Remove to a rack and let cool in pan for 30 minutes. Use the edges of the paper to lift the cake up and out. Place on a rack (leave the paper on) and let cool before slicing and serving.
