Ingredients

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 2 tsp cinnamon
  • 1 tsp vanilla
  • 1 1/2 cups mashed overripe banana (3-4 small bananas)
  • 1/2 cup coconut sugar
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar

  • 2 tbsp whole milk
  • 1 egg, room temperature
  • 1/3 cup chopped walnuts
  • 1/3 cup chopped pecans

  • Preheat oven to 325 degrees F.

  • In another bowl, mix the egg, sugars, and avocado oil until combined.
  • Add the milk, vanilla, and mashed bananas and mix well.
  • Add the dry mixture to the wet mixture and stir until just blended. Don't overmix.
  • Fold in half the walnuts and half the pecans and pour batter into prepared loaf pan.
  • Top with remaining walnuts and pecans.
  • Bake for 60-70 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in center comes out with a few crumbs on it.

Notes

If your bananas aren't ripe enough, lay them on a baking sheet, and pop them into a 250° F oven for about 15 minutes. Let them cool before peeling, and continue with the recipe as normal.
Wrap the leftover bread in plastic wrap or place in a Ziploc bag on the counter. After three days, pop it in the fridge for another day or two. You could also wrap individual slices with plastic wrap, place the wrapped slices in a Ziploc freezer bag, and freeze for up to a month. This reheats beautifully.
