Banana Nut Bread

Well guess what I had sitting on the counter that were too ripe to eat but I didn't want to though them in the trash.  That's right!  Bananas!  This is such an easy thing to make and everyone loves it.  I like to slice it and put it in the freezer to take out a slice at a time to toast or take with my lunch.  It freezes really well.

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.  Place the rack in the middle.  Grease the bottom of a 9x5x3 inches baking dish.

Mix all the ingredients together with a stand mixer and pour into the loaf dish.  Bake for about one hour.  Make sure to check with a  toothpick about 10 minutes before the timer goes off.  As soon as the toothpick comes out clean remove from the oven.  There is a fine line between moist and dried.

Here are the ingredients:
3 Mashed Bananas
2 1/2 Cup Flour
1/2 Cup Sugar
1/2 Cup Packed Brown Sugar
3 1/2 tsp Baking Powder
1 tsp Salt
3 Tbls Vegetable Oil
A little less than 1 Cup of Milk
1 Egg
1 Tbls Fresh Grated Lemon Zest
1 Cup Chopped Walnuts.

Let cool for 10 to 15 minutes and remove from the pan.  Let cool completely before slicing.

Enjoy!!!
