Banana Nut Bread

Step 1

Preheat oven to 350°F. Grease an 8½ x 4½-inch loaf pan and set aside.

Step 2

In a medium bowl, sift or whisk together flour, nutmeg, cinnamon, baking soda and salt. Set aside.

Step 3

In a separate large bowl, whisk together mashed banana, melted butter, sugar, egg and vanilla extract.

Step 4

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, stirring just until combined. Fold in the walnuts.

Step 5

Pour batter into prepared loaf pan. Bake until the bread is golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, about 50-60 minutes. Do not overbake.

Step 6

Remove from the oven, unmold from the pan, and cool completely on a wire rack before slicing and serving.
