Answer 1

banana walnut bread is about the best thing to eat their is. I've never tried it with cherries, though. I have a great recipe. I'd give it to you except that I'm in a hotel and it is at home. Sorry.

Answer 2

Cherry-Walnut Banana Bread

3 over-ripe bananas
2 tbsp. lemon juice
4 ounces unsweetened apple sauce
1/2 cup dark sugar (brown sugar, if you have it; I used demerara sugar)
2 cups whole wheat flour
3/4 tsp. baking powder
3/4 tsp. baking soda
1/2 tsp. salt
1/2 cup dried cherries (optional, though leaving them out will require a name change)
1/2 cup chopped walnuts (ditto)

Preheat the oven to 350 F.

In a large bowl, mash the bananas and add the lemon juice, apple sauce, and sugar. Stir well to combine. In a separate bowl, combine the remaining ingredients. Add the dry ingredients to the banana mixture, and stir just until the mixture is well-combined.

Spray or wipe a loaf pan with oil (I used non-stick spray on a silicon loaf pan). Spread the mixture evenly in the pan and bake until a toothpick or knife inserted in the center comes out clean, about 50 minutes. Allow to cool before serving.

Note: Fat-free quickbreads like this really benefit from being allowed to cool completely, which is why they often taste better the next day. The crust, which is chewier than breads with oil, will gather moisture and softness over time. Ignore the tempting aroma; pleasure delayed will be pleasure multiplied.

Answer 3

The recipe is from the Tassajara Bread Book. It's low sugar and simple to modify/add to (I like to mix it up sometimes and add dried cranberries or dried cherries or dried currants or chocolate chips, and sometimes I play with the spices too and add things like cardamom or nutmeg)....

Here are the ingredients:

2 cups whole wheat flour (to make it lighter I often do half whole wheat, half unbleached wheat flour)
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 cup oil
1/2 cup honey
1 grated lemon rind
2 beaten eggs
2 cups ripe banana pulp
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup chopped nuts (optional) - Walnuts here
1/2 cup raisins (optional) - Dried cherries here

Basic instructions: sift together dry ingredients, blend wet ingredients (including lemon zest). Add dry ingredients and banana pulp, alternately in three parts, to the wet ingredients. Pour into greased loaf pan (or muffin tins I suppose!) for 50 minutes at 350 degrees. (less time I would imagine, if you made muffins).
