Time 1h50m

Yield 20

Number Of Ingredients 14

2 cups whole wheat flour
1 cup flaxseed meal
¼ cup wheat germ
2 teaspoons baking soda
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
⅓ teaspoon sea salt
2 cups chopped walnuts
4 eggs
2 cups brown sugar
⅔ cup sunflower seed oil
⅓ cup roasted walnut oil
¼ cup plain yogurt
5 large ripe bananas, coarsely mashed, or more to taste
2 teaspoons vanilla extract

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Butter two 8x4-inch loaf pans.
  • Whisk whole wheat flour, flaxseed meal, wheat germ, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt together in a large bowl. Stir walnuts into dry ingredients.
  • Beat eggs and brown sugar in a separate bowl with an electric mixer until thick and pale, about 3 minutes. Add sunflower seed oil, walnut oil, and yogurt; beat to combine. Stir in mashed bananas and vanilla extract.
  • Pour egg mixture over dry ingredients and mix briefly, until just moistened. Divide batter between loaf pans.
  • Bake loaves in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the centers comes out clean, about 1 hour and 15 minutes. Remove pans from the oven and let sit 5 minutes, then remove loaves to cool on wire racks.

I'm not a huge fan of bananas, but I actually really liked this bread. The walnuts and flax seeds help to balance out the banana flavor.
