Banana Nut Bread


This recipe is very easy to make. No mixing appliance is required, just a spatula, along with a 4x8 loaf pan, and a large mixing bowl. The result is a very tasty banana bread that’s a little on the dense side, just the way I like it, especially when slathered with lots of creamy butter.
The riper the bananas, the better. I use bananas that are so ripe their skins are black.
Ingredients
  • BANANAS, 3 ripe, mashed
  • BUTTER, 1/3 cup softened
  • SUGAR, ¾ cup
  • EGGS, 2 beaten
  • VANILLA, 1 teaspoon
  • WALNUTS, ½ cup, chopped
  • BAKING SODA, 1 teaspoon
  • SALT, 1 pinch
  • FLOUR, all-purpose, 1½ cups
Directions
  1. Preheat the oven to 350˚.
  2. Cream the butter and sugar together, add into the mashed bananas, in a large mixing bowl.
  3. Mix in the eggs, vanilla and walnuts.
  4. Mix in the baking soda and salt.
  5. Mix in the flour.
  6. Butter the inside of the loaf pan, fill with the banana batter and bake in the oven for 1 hour.
  7. Allow to cool on a rack before removing from the loaf pan and slicing. Serve with lots of creamery butter.
