Ingredients
  

  • 3 overripe bananas
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • cup brown sugar
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • pinch of salt
  • cup canola oil
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • cup unsweetened almond milk
  • 1 cup of chopped walnuts

Instructions
 

  • Mash 2 1/2 bananas in a mixing bowl. Save the other 1/2 banana to be used as slices on top of the loaf.
  • Add in the oil, vanilla extract, almond milk, and brown sugar to the bowl and mix well.
  • Next add the flour, baking soda, and salt. Mix until the batter no longer has lumps.
  • Lastly, add the cinnamon and chopped nuts. Fold this into the batter gently making sure not to over mix.
  • Place the batter into a greased or parchment lined loaf pan. Top with the remaining slices of banana.
  • Cook for 50-60 minutes in an oven that's been preheated to 350°F. You want the top of the bread to be a golden brown.
  • Once done cooking, remove the loaf pan from the oven and let it sit for 10 minutes. Afterwards, remove the loaf from the pan and let it cool on a cutting board or cooling rack.
  • Once cooled, cut and enjoy.

Notes

  • To make oil-free, swap out unsweetened apple sauce for the oil at a 1:1 ratio.
  • Omit the nuts or use any nuts you'd like.
  • For a crunchy crust, sprinkle some additional brown sugar over the top of the loaf batter before baking.
  • Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days.
  • Store in the freezer for up to 2 months.
