Classic Banana Bread is the perfect companion to a hot beverage. Sweet and moist banana bread with a few walnuts is delicious and perfect for a slow morning with a hot cup of tea or as an after-dinner treat.
Homemade Banana Bread is super easy to make with organic ingredients and tastes better than store-bought.
How To Make Banana Bread
Preheat the oven to 350F, then in a large mixing bowl, mash the ripe bananas. It will be a little lumpy, you just want to mash them as much as you can with a potato masher or a fork.
Then add all the wet ingredients to the mashed bananas – the eggs, sugar, melted butter, and vanilla extract. Mix until well combined.
In the same bowl add the dry ingredients – all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, ground cinnamon, and salt. Mix until well combined. Then fold in the chopped walnuts.
Grease a loaf pan with either vegetable oil or Homemade Ghee. Spread the batter evenly in the pan.
Bake for 50 – 60 minutes or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the middle comes out clean.
Allow the Banana Bread to cool for 30 minutes, then slice and serve with your favorite warm drink. Enjoy!
