Simple Banana Bread

A banana bread recipe without baking soda I developed because I had limited ingredients and wanted a bread recipe, not cake-like, while living in a 10-foot trailer. This recipe is also low in fat.

Ingredients

• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• ½ teaspoon salt
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• ½ cup chopped walnuts
• ⅔ cup white sugar
• 2 large eggs
• 4 ripe bananas, mashed
• cooking spray

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease an 8x4-inch loaf pan and set aside.

Step 2

Sift together flour, baking powder, and salt in a large bowl. Set aside.

Step 3

Mash bananas in another bowl and stir in eggs and sugar.

Step 4

Stir the flour mixture into the banana mixture just to combine, then fold in walnuts. Pour the batter into the prepared pan.

Step 5

Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center of the bread comes out clean, 55 to 65 minutes.

Step 6

Remove from the oven and cool on a rack for 10 minutes, then remove from the pan and cool completely. Slice and serve.
