Prep Time 5 minutes mins
Cook Time 55 minutes mins
Total Time 1 hour hr
- 4 overripe bananas
- ⅓ cup melted butter
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- ½ teaspoon baking soda
- ½ cup sugar
- 1 egg
- 1½ cup all-purpose flour
- ½ cup assorted nuts (I used walnuts and almonds)
Preheat the oven to 350F.
Grease a loaf pan with butter and dust some flour on it.
Take a mixing bowl and drop the peeled bananas into the bowl. Using a fork, mash the bananas. Keep adding rest of the ingredients (except the nuts) to the bowl and mix it with the fork or a wooden spoon until they’re incorporated into a batter.
Finally, mix the assorted nuts.
Pour the batter into the greased pan and place it in the middle rack of the hot oven. Bake for 50 minutes. Check by inserting a chopstick or a knife. If it comes out clean, take the pan out of the oven. If not, continue baking and check again after 5 minutes.
Once it’s done, let the bread cool in the pan for a while. Then, release the sides using a serrated knife. The bread should come out easy.
