Directions
Banana Nut Bread is one of my favorite quick breads, and trust me, this recipe will not disappoint! In my family, we call this the Best Ever Banana Nut Bread. Make sure your bananas are extra ripe for best results. If you wish, you can leave the nuts out to make it nut-free. For variations, try this Blueberry Banana Bread or this Gluten Free Banana Bread recipe.,I make this recipe whenever I have ripe bananas on my counter that need to be used up. This recipe makes two loaves, so I usually freeze one for later. You can swap the walnuts for pecans if you wish. If banana bread is more your thing, then omit the nuts all together.,My daughter loves banana bread, so its the perfect breakfast. You can make it ahead and eat it during the week. Leftover bread can also be sliced and frozen.,Swap the walnuts for any nut you like or omit them entirely.,Use extra ripe bananas for best results. They should have black spots and be very soft.,For best results, avoid over-mixing the batter. Over-mixing can cause breads to be tough or gummy.,You can halve the ingredients to make one loaf.,You can turn this bread into banana muffins by baking the batter in muffin tins. Just decrease the bake time to 20-25 minutes and check for doneness with a toothpick.
