A delightful and moist banana bread with a nutty twist, perfect for any occasion.
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Ensure the oven is fully preheated for even baking.
In a large mixing bowl, mash the ripe bananas until smooth.
Use a fork or potato masher for a smoother consistency.
Add the eggs, melted butter, Greek yogurt, sugar, and vanilla extract to the mashed bananas and mix well.
Mix until the ingredients are fully incorporated for a consistent batter.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and baking soda.
Sift the dry ingredients for a lighter texture.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
Avoid overmixing to prevent a dense loaf.
Fold in the chopped walnuts gently.
Reserve a few walnuts to sprinkle on top for decoration.
Pour the batter into a greased loaf pan and smooth the top.
Use parchment paper for easier removal.
Bake in the preheated oven for 55-60 minutes, or until a knife inserted into the center comes out clean.
Check the loaf at 50 minutes to avoid overbaking.
Let the loaf cool in the pan 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 banana nut loaf as desired.
Enjoy with a spread of butter or a drizzle of honey for added flavor.
