Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 pieces ripe bananas
- 0.5 cup unsalted butter
- 0.75 cup granulated sugar
- 0.25 cup brown sugar
- 2 pieces large eggs
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 0.75 cup chopped walnuts
- 1 tablespoon milk
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan and set it aside.
In a large mixing bowl, mash the ripe bananas using a fork or potato masher until smooth.
Melt the unsalted butter and add it to the mashed bananas. Stir well to combine.
Add granulated sugar, brown sugar, eggs, and vanilla extract to the banana mixture. Mix until fully incorporated.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, salt, and ground cinnamon.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring just until combined. Do not overmix.
Fold in the chopped walnuts and the tablespoon of milk for added moisture.
Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan, spreading it evenly.
Bake in the preheated oven for 55-60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Remove the bread from the oven and let it cool in the pan for 10 minutes. Then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing and serving.
