Banana Nut Bread Recipe
Ingredients:
- 1 3/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 2/3 cups granulated sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 2 Tablespoons whole milk
- 1/3 cup unsalted butter melted
- 2 large eggs at room temperature
- 2 or 3 ripe bananas with peels removed and mashed
- 1/2 cup chopped nuts of choice (I use pecans or walnuts)
Instructions:
Prepare Pan
Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Grease and flour 9×5 inch bread pan and set aside.
Combine Ingredients
I like using my large vintage bowl for mixing the ingredients. In a large bowl with a spatula mix together 1 3/4 cups of all-purpose flour, 2/3 cup of sugar, 1/2 teaspoon baking soda, 1/4 teaspoon salt, 2 teaspoons baking powder, 2 Tablespoons whole milk, 1/3 cup unsalted butter, 2 large eggs and 2 or 3 ripe bananas until well incorporated. Then add 1/2 cup of chopped nuts and stir thoroughly.
Bake
Pour mixture into bread pan and bake for 60 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean. Using oven mitts carefully remove bread pan from oven and place hot bread pan on a cooling rack. Allow to cool for about 10 minutes. Then gently remove from pan.
Serve
Cut bread with a sharp serrated bread knife and serve warm with butter (if desired) and enjoy! To make fancy little round butter balls use a melon baller like this.
Store
After bread has cooled completely store in a sealed container for up to 4-5 days at room temperature. If kept in the refrigerator the bread may last even longer; if it’s not eaten by then.
