Ingredients
- 3 ripe bananas
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs, beaten
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup chopped walnuts
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and spray a 9x5 inch (23x13 cm) loaf pan with cooking spray.
- In a large mixing bowl, mash the bananas until smooth. Add the melted butter and stir until well combined.
- Add the sugar, beaten eggs, and vanilla extract to the banana mixture and stir until well combined.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Add the dry ingredients to the banana mixture and stir until just combined. Don't overmix.
- Fold in the chopped walnuts.
- Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and bake for 60-65 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the bread comes out clean.

- Remove the bread from the pan and let it cool completely on a wire rack.
- Slice and serve.
Tips
- Make sure to use very ripe bananas, the riper the bananas, the sweeter and more moist the bread will be.
- Don't overmix the batter, mix until it's just combined, overmixing can result in a tough, dry bread.
- You can substitute the walnuts with pecans if you prefer.
- If you don't have a 9x5 inch loaf pan, you can use an 8x4 inch (20x10 cm) loaf pan. The bread will just be a little thicker.
