Ingredients:

2 cups all-purpose white wheat flour
250g
1 tsp cinnamon
3g
1 tsp baking powder
5g
1 tsp baking soda
5g
1/2 cup walnuts
120g
3 bananas
360g
2 eggs
100g
1 tsp vanilla extract
4g
1/2 cup butter
110g

Instructions:

1. Mix Dry Ingredients:
In a large bowl, combine the flour, cinnamon, baking powder, and baking soda. Stir them together until well incorporated.
2. Prepare the Walnuts:
Chop the walnuts if they are not already chopped. Add them to the dry ingredients and stir to distribute evenly.
3. Mash the Bananas:
In another large bowl, mash the bananas with a fork or potato masher until smooth but still slightly chunky.
4. Combine Wet Ingredients:
To the mashed bananas, add the eggs and vanilla extract. Stir until the mixture is well combined.
5. Melt and Add the Butter:
Melt the butter in the microwave or on the stovetop. Allow it to cool slightly before adding to the banana mixture. Stir to combine.
6. Combine Dry and Wet Ingredients:
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients. Stir gently until just combined, being careful not to overmix. The batter should be thick and a bit lumpy.
7. Transfer to Pan:
Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and spread it out evenly.
8. Bake:
Place the loaf pan in the preheated oven and bake for about 60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean or with just a few moist crumbs.
9. Cool:
Remove the banana bread from the oven and let it cool in the pan for about 10 minutes. Then, transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely.
10. Serve:
Once cooled, slice the banana bread and serve. Enjoy your homemade banana bread!

Tips:

- Ensure your bananas are fully ripe for optimal sweetness and flavor.

- Toast the walnuts beforehand for a richer, nuttier taste.

- Do not overmix the batter; it can result in a tougher texture.

- Use room temperature eggs and butter for a smoother batter.

- Check doneness by inserting a toothpick into the center. It should come out clean.
