Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Whole wheat flour
- 1 teaspoon Baking soda
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 3 large Ripe bananas
- 2 large Eggs
- 0.5 cup Unsalted butter, melted
- 0.5 cup Unsweetened applesauce
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 cup Chopped walnuts
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan with butter or non-stick spray and set aside.
In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the whole wheat flour, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, mash the ripe bananas with a fork until smooth.
Add the eggs to the mashed bananas and beat until well combined.
Stir in the melted butter, unsweetened applesauce, and vanilla extract into the banana mixture and mix until all ingredients are incorporated.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring gently with a spoon or spatula until just combined. Do not over-mix.
Fold in the chopped walnuts, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the batter.
Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan, smoothing the top with a spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for 50-60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the bread comes out clean.
Allow the banana bread to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
Slice and serve the banana walnut bread as a nutritious snack or breakfast option.
