- This is a great banana nut bread recipe that is tasty amd has the goodness of nuts.
Ingredients:
- 1 1/2 cups very ripe bananas, mashed
- 2 free range eggs
- 1/4 cup Olive Oil
- 1/2 cup honey
- 1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla
- 1 1/2 cups whole wheat flour
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspooon baking soda
- 1/2 cup chopped pecans or walnuts
Set your oven dial to 350°F.
In a large mixing bowl combine the olive oil with honey and wisk until it is well mixed.
Next take a beater and add the eggs, beat well.
Mix in the mashed bananas, chopped walnuts or pecans and add the vanilla. finally sift the flour, salt, baking soda into teh mixture and combine making sure there are no lumps.
Grease your baking tin and add your mixture, your oven should have reached temperature now.
Bake for approximately 1 hour, a skewer or knife thrust into the loaf should emerge clean when it is cooked.
Server hot, warm or cold. A cream cheese icing is delicious but naughty ;-) I always ice it but it's also good served as is or with a little butter.
