Simple Banana Bread
I developed this banana bread recipe without baking soda because I had limited ingredients and wanted a bread recipe, not cake-like, while living in a 10-foot trailer. This recipe is also low in fat.
Ingredients
-
cooking spray
-
2 cups all-purpose flour
-
1 teaspoon baking powder
-
½ teaspoon salt
-
4 ripe bananas, mashed
-
2 large eggs
-
⅔ cup white sugar
-
½ cup chopped walnuts
Description
-
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease an 8x4-inch loaf pan and set aside.
-
Sift together flour, baking powder, and salt in a large bowl. Set aside.
-
Mash bananas in another bowl and stir in eggs and sugar.
-
Stir the flour mixture into the banana mixture just to combine, then fold in walnuts. Pour the batter into the prepared pan.
-
Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center of the bread comes out clean, 55 to 65 minutes.
-
Remove from the oven and cool on a rack for 10 minutes, then remove from the pan and cool completely. Slice and serve.
