Description

A banana bread recipe without baking soda. Overripe bananas lend an extra sweetness and a deeper banana taste to this easy, popular low-fat loaf.

Ingredients

cooking spray
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
4 ripe bananas, mashed
2 large eggs
2/3 cup white sugar
1/2 cup chopped walnuts

Directions

1 Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease an 8x4-inch loaf pan and set aside.
2 Sift together flour, baking powder, and salt in a large bowl. Set aside.
3 Mash bananas in another bowl and stir in eggs and sugar.
4 Stir the flour mixture into the banana mixture just to combine, then fold in walnuts. Pour the batter into the prepared pan.
5 Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center of the bread comes out clean, 55 to 65 minutes.
6 Remove from the oven and cool on a rack for 10 minutes, then remove from the pan and cool completely. Slice and serve.
