Preparation

Step 1

Note: this recipe is for an electric pressure cooker and after making several baked goods I am finding out one only needs about 2 cups of water to create cake like textures, and more water for more pudding like textures.
Cream sugar and butter well.
Beat in vanilla and egg well
Beat in the mashed/puree bananas
Combine the flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt
Add the dry ingredients along with the buttermilk and blend mixture well.
Pour into a greased and floured 8 x 4 loaf pan.
Batter should be half full but never more than 2/3 full
Seal top of loaf pan with buttered foil
Place a wire rack in the bottom of the cooker pan
Add 2 cups water
Place the prepared loaf on the wire rack
Pressure cooker 30 minutes and let steam dissipate natural ( don't open exhaust )
Remove loaf pan from cooker with tongs
Place on a rack
Remove the foil
Let cool to warm and carefully remove from pan, placing upright on serving plate ( Loaf will feel very soft as does steamed cakes)
Glaze as desired
Slice when cool
Wrap well to store and as with banana breads, flavor improves with age.
