A delightful twist on classic banana bread, enhanced with a nutty crunch and a touch of spice.
Preheat your oven to 170°C (340°F) and grease a loaf tin.
Greasing the tin ensures easy removal of the loaf after baking.
In a mixing bowl, combine the whole wheat flour, all-purpose flour, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt.
Sifting the dry ingredients together helps to evenly distribute the baking powder and spices.
In another bowl, mash the bananas until smooth, then mix in the eggs, olive oil, and brown sugar.
Using a fork to mash the bananas works well and leaves a bit of texture.
Gradually add the wet mixture to the dry ingredients, stirring until just combined.
Avoid overmixing to keep the loaf tender.
Fold in the chopped walnuts gently.
Folding prevents the nuts from sinking to the bottom of the loaf.
Pour the batter into the prepared loaf tin and smooth the top.
Tap the tin lightly on the counter to remove air bubbles.
Bake in the preheated oven for 40 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Check the loaf a few minutes before the timer ends to prevent overbaking.
Let the loaf cool in the tin for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
Cooling on a wire rack prevents the bottom from becoming soggy.
Slice and serve your Nutty Banana Loaf. Enjoy!
Pair with a cup of tea or coffee for a delightful treat.
