History of Banana Bread Print E-mail
Written by Administrator   
Banana bread first became a standard feature of American cookbooks with the popularization of baking soda and baking powder in the 1930s (and appears in Pillsbury's 1933 Balanced Recipes cookbook). The home baking revival of the 1960s and the simplicity of its recipe led to an explosion in banana bread's popularity. The cookbooks of the 1960's added to its popularity because they commonly listed multiple variations of bread that added fruits and nuts.
