Ingredients
- 1 cup white sugar
- ½ cup butter
- 2 large eggs
- 3 ripe bananas, mashed
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ½ cup chopped walnuts
Steps
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly grease a 9×5-inch loaf pan.
- Cream sugar and butter in a large bowl with an electric mixer on medium speed until light and fluffy. Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Mix in mashed bananas. Sift together flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt in a separate bowl; beat into banana mixture just until combined. Fold in nuts. Pour batter into the prepared pan.
- Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center of the loaf comes out clean, about 1 hour.
