I stopped using my stand mixer for banana bread and I think the hand whisk people were right
Everyone told me a stand mixer is a must for banana bread, but mine kept turning out dense and rubbery, so 4 batches ago I switched to a cheap hand whisk and a $2 spatula from Walmart. The loaves come out lighter now and it takes 8 minutes total, which is less than the time I spent scraping the bowl of my KitchenAid. Did anyone else ditch the mixer for quick breads, or am I just bad at using mine?
