Banana Walnut Bread with Olive Oil

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, whisk the olive oil and honey. Now add the eggs and whisk again to combine.

Step 3

Now add the bananas yogurt, milk, baking soda, vanilla extract, cardamom, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Whisk again.

Step 4

Using a spatula, stir in the flour; then add the dates and walnuts and stir the batter again until everything is well combined.

Step 5

Lightly oil a non-stick a 9 x 5 loaf pan like this one. Pour the batter into the loaf pan and shake very gently so it evens out.

Step 6

Bake in the 325 degrees F heated-oven. After 50 minutes or so, test by inserting a toothpick in a few places. If only a couple moist crumbs cling to it, remove it from the oven. If it needs a little more time, give it 5 more minutes or so.

Step 7

Remove from the oven and let the bread cool for 10 minutes, then transfer to cool on a wire rack for another 20 minutes or so. Slice and enjoy!
