Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 large ripe bananas
- 100 grams unsalted butter
- 150 grams granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 200 grams all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 60 milliliters milk
- 75 grams chopped walnuts
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F) and line a 9x5 inch loaf pan with parchment paper or lightly grease it.
Peel and mash the ripe bananas in a bowl using a fork until smooth.
In a medium saucepan, melt the butter over low heat. Once melted, remove from heat and stir in the mashed bananas.
Add the granulated sugar, eggs, and vanilla extract to the banana mixture. Mix until well combined.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, salt, and ground cinnamon.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, stirring gently until just combined.
Stir in the milk to loosen the batter, followed by the chopped walnuts.
Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top with a spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for 50 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Allow the banana bread to cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.
Serve and enjoy your banana bread slice with a cup of tea or coffee.
