Time 1h20m

Number Of Ingredients 10

8 Tablespoons Unsalted Butter ((softened) - 115 grams)
2 Eggs ((large))
3 Bananas ((ripe & large sized) - 345 grams - Roughly 1 1/2 cups of mashed bananas)
2 Cups Flour ((all purpose flour) - 240 grams)
1 Cup White Granulated Sugar (- 200 grams)
1 Cup Chopped Walnuts (- 115 grams - 3/4 cup for inside the batter and 1/4 cup sprinkled on top of the batter)
1 Teaspoon Vanilla Extract (- 5 milliliters)
1 Teaspoon Baking Soda (- 5 milliliters)
1 Teaspoon Baking Powder ((aluminum free) - 5 milliliters)
1/2 Teaspoon Salt (- 2.5 milliliters)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 325 degrees F.
  • Mash bananas with a fork.
  • Soften butter in a microwave.
  • Stir eggs, bananas and butter together.
  • Mix in remaining ingredients (except the chopped walnuts). Stir until the batter is fully mixed.
  • Add 3/4 cup of chopped walnuts to the batter (and save the remaining 1/4 cup of chopped walnuts for later). Make sure the chopped walnuts are evenly spread throughout the batter.
  • Pour finished batter into a nonstick bread pan. Smooth out the top of the batter within the bread pan.
  • Sprinkle the remaining 1/4 cup of chopped walnuts on top of the batter before placing into the oven.
  • Bake in the oven for 65-70 minutes.
  • Take out of oven and let the banana bread cool down in the bread pan for 10 minutes. Do not remove the banana bread from the bread pan during this 10 minute cool down period. Use oven mitts as the bread pan will be very hot coming out of the oven.
  • After 10 minutes, remove the banana bread from the bread pan. Place the banana bread on a cooling rack in order to completely cool. This cool down may take 1-2 hours. Gently slide a silicon spatula between the banana bread and the bread pan walls if the banana bread is stuck in the pan.

BLACK WALNUT BANANA NUT LOAVES



BLACK WALNUT BANANA NUT LOAVES image

I purchased 2 pounds of over ripen Bananas for 80 cents and made dessert to feed two families, mine and my neighbor. This recipe is simple and can be made in just a few minutes. It bakes in less than an hour, and is great plain as is or with some softened butter spread on each slice. You can make it with or without the black walnuts or even use the nuts of your choice. I used 5 bananas in this recipe to give it the extra push in banana flavor, as well as a banana flavoring to enhance the flavor even more. Hope you try it. Add the extra nuts on top before baking for extra nutty flavor.

1 cup(s) olive oil, extra virgin
2 cup(s) sugar
4 cup(s) self rising flour (i used white lily)

1 teaspoon(s) baking soda
2 tablespoon(s) banana flavor
1/2 teaspoon(s) salt

Steps:

Tips:

  • Mise en place: Prepare all ingredients and equipment before starting to bake. This will help ensure that the baking process is smooth and efficient.
  • Measure ingredients accurately: Use a kitchen scale to measure ingredients for precise results. This is especially important for baking, as even small variations in measurements can affect the outcome of the recipe.
  • Use room temperature ingredients: Bring ingredients such as butter, eggs, and milk to room temperature before using. This will help them incorporate more easily into the batter and result in a smoother, more evenly textured loaf.
  • Cream butter and sugar thoroughly: This step is essential for creating a light and fluffy loaf. Cream the butter and sugar together until the mixture is pale and fluffy and has almost doubled in volume.
  • Gradually add eggs: Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. This will help prevent the batter from curdling.
  • Do not overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter can result in a tough, dense loaf. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Bake the loaves in a preheated oven: This will help ensure that the loaves rise evenly and have a golden brown crust.
  • Cool the loaves completely before slicing: Allow the loaves to cool completely before slicing. This will help prevent them from crumbling.
