A delightful twist on the classic banana bread, featuring a moist texture and rich walnut flavor.
Preheat your oven to 350°F and grease a loaf pan.
Greasing the pan ensures the loaf doesn't stick, making it easier to remove after baking.
Mash the ripe bananas in a mixing bowl until smooth.
Using a fork or potato masher works well for mashing bananas.
Whisk in the eggs until fully combined.
Ensure the eggs are at room temperature for better mixing.
In a separate bowl, cream the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy.
Softened butter makes creaming easier and results in a better texture.
Combine the banana mixture with the creamed butter and sugar.
Mix gently to avoid overworking the batter.
Sift together the flour, baking soda, and salt, then gradually add to the wet ingredients.
Sifting the dry ingredients ensures a lump-free batter.
Fold in the chopped walnuts.
Gently folding prevents the batter from deflating.
Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top.
Tap the pan lightly on the counter to remove air bubbles.
Bake in the preheated oven for 50-60 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Check the loaf at 50 minutes to avoid overbaking.
Allow the loaf to cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
Cooling in the pan helps the loaf set and makes it easier to remove.
Slice and serve your delicious banana walnut loaf.
Serve with a pat of butter or a drizzle of honey for added flavor.
