Ingredients

Original recipe (1X) yields 12 servings

  • 1 cup white sugar

  • ½ cup butter

  • 2 large eggs

  • 3 ripe bananas, mashed

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour

  • 1 teaspoon baking soda

  • 1 teaspoon baking powder

  • ½ teaspoon salt

  • ½ cup chopped walnuts

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan.

  2. Cream sugar and butter in a large bowl with an electric mixer on medium speed until light and fluffy. Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Mix in mashed bananas. Sift together flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt in a separate bowl; beat into banana mixture just until combined. Fold in nuts. Pour batter into the prepared pan.

  3. Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center of the loaf comes out clean, about 1 hour.
