Ingredients

• 3 large ripe bananas
• 100 grams unsalted butter
• 150 grams granulated sugar
• 2 large eggs
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 200 grams all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 60 milliliters milk

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F) and line a 9x5 inch loaf pan with parchment paper or lightly grease it.

Step 2

Peel and mash the ripe bananas in a bowl using a fork until smooth.

Step 3

In a medium saucepan, melt the butter over low heat. Once melted, remove from heat and stir in the mashed bananas.

Step 4

Add the granulated sugar, eggs, and vanilla extract to the banana mixture. Mix until well combined.

Step 5

In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, salt, and ground cinnamon.

Step 6

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, stirring gently until just combined.

Step 7

Stir in the milk to loosen the batter, followed by the chopped walnuts.

Step 8

Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top with a spatula.

Step 9

Bake in the preheated oven for 50 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Step 10

Allow the banana bread to cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.

Step 11

Serve and enjoy your banana bread slice with a cup of tea or coffee.
