Full Recipe:

Ingredients

• 3 ripe bananas

• 2 large eggs

• 1 cup organic cane sugar

• 1½ cups all purpose flour

• ½ teaspoon baking soda

• ¼ teaspoon salt

• ½ cup walnuts, toasted and chopped 

Directions

1. Preheat the Oven: Set your oven to 180°C (350°F). Grease and line a 9x5 inch loaf pan.

2. Mash the Bananas: In a large bowl, peel and mash the ripe bananas until nearly smooth, leaving a few lumps for texture.

3. Mix Wet Ingredients: Add the eggs to the mashed bananas and whisk until well combined. Stir in the sugar until the mixture is glossy and thick.

4. Add Dry Ingredients: Sprinkle the flour evenly over the wet mixture. Gently fold it in using a spatula until just incorporated; avoid overmixing to ensure a tender loaf.

5. Incorporate Walnuts: Fold in the toasted and chopped walnuts, reserving a few for topping if desired.

6. Bake: Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top. Sprinkle the reserved walnuts on top. Bake for about 50 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

7. Cool and Serve: Allow the bread to cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely. Slice and enjoy!
