Banana Walnut Bread

This is my first post so I thought why not start with something sweet. So here is my all time favorite Banana Walnut Bread recipe. It is one of the first things i ever baked:)

The recipe is adapted from Edible GardenI am personally not a big banana fan but love it in this bread. I also make muffins with the same recipe and it turns out great. This bread is baked almost every week since we all love it :). Its great to carry for picnics or day outs too. Whenever we go for short breaks this bread is always packed in our backpacks.

Lets gets started with the ingredients:

1 ripe banana ( fully ripe for best results)
1/2 cup butter
3/4 cup regular sugar , I use demerara sugar
2 eggs
1 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 cup walnuts
1/2 tsp  pure vanilla extract


Method:

1. Beat the butter and sugar together until sugar has blended well and add the eggs and beat more.  
2. Mash the banana well and mix it well with the butter sugar eggs mixture.
3. Add the vanilla extract and mix, next add the flour and nuts and combine well.
4. Grease a loaf pan or muffin tray and bake in a pre-heated oven at 350F/180C for 40-50 mins or Gas Mark 5 for 30 mins 
5. Once done transfer on a wire rack, cool completely and Enjoy !!!
