Banana Apple Bread Recipe

I wanted to make banana bread today, but only had 2 ripened bananas left...so I added shredded apple to make up for the 3rd banana and made a new bread for my family to try! It smelled amazing while it was baking!

Banana Apple Bread
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 1/2 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp baking soda
1/4 tsp ground cinnamon
1/4 tsp salt
1 egg
2 mashed ripe bananas (approx. 2/3 cup)
1/2 cup shredded apple (quarter, core & peel first makes it easier to shred)
3/4 cup sugar
1/4 cup cooking oil

Grease the bottom and 1/2 inch up the sides of an 8x4x2 loaf pan; set aside. In a medium mixing bowl combine the flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon and salt; set aside. In another bowl combine the egg, bananas, apple, sugar, and oil. Add moist mixture to dry mixture, stir until combined well. Spoon batter into the prepared pan. Sprinkle batter with a light dusting of cinnamon before placing in oven. Bake @ 350 for 50-55 min. or until a toothpick inserted near the middle comes out clean. Cool in pan for 10 min. Remove from pan and allow to completely cool on rack before wrapping for storage. Let rest overnight, serve the next day. Letting it rest overnight lets the flavors mellow and and makes the loaf easier to cut.
