- 2 cups Unbleached All-Purpose Flour
- 1 tsp Baking Soda
- 1 tsp Baking Powder
- ½ tsp Salt
- 1½ cup Mashed Ripe Bananas aprox. 3 Bananas
- 2 Eggs (X-Large)
- ¾ cup Natural Cane Sugar
- ½ cup Avocado Oil
Honey Walnut Topping
- ½ cup Honey
- 1 cup Chopped Walnuts
Instructions
Honey Walnut Topping
- In a small bowl, combine Honey and Chopped Walnuts. Side aside.
Banana Loaf
- Preheat oven to 350°F. Prepare your loaf pan by greasing it with avocado oil and placing a 7" wide parchment strip with enough slack it will stick out of the pan. This makes it easier to lift the loaf out of the pan later.
- In a large mixing bowl, sift flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
- In a medium mixing bowl, combine mashed bananas, eggs, sugar, and oil. Mix well.
- Slowing combine wet ingredients to dry ingredients using a wooden spoon. Mix until just combined with no clumps.
- Pour into prepared loaf pan and tap out any air bubbles.
- Spoon Honey Walnut Mixture over top the batter.
- Bake on the middle rack. After 30 minutes place a sheet of aluminum foil over the top of the loaf. This will prevent the topping from burning.
- After an hour, use a toothpick or knife to check for doneness. If still wet, leave for another 10 minutes or until the knife comes out clean.
- After the loaf is removed from the oven, allow cooling in the pan for 20 minutes before removing it onto a cooling rack.
- Allow the loaf to cool COMPLETELY before cutting into it. This will allow the loaf to develop more flavour!
