Step 5

In a separate mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt.

Step 6

Mix the dry ingredients and the canola oil into the sugar mixture.

Step 7

Gently fold the walnuts into the bread batter by hand, mixing them in well.

Step 8

Scrape the batter into the prepared loaf pan.

Step 10

Bake at 350° F for about 1 hour, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean and the loaf is golden brown.

Step 11

Let it cool in the pan for 10 to 15 minutes; then run a butter knife around the edge, and plop it out onto a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 12

Slice and serve your banana loaf with dairy free butter– or regular butter if you're not dairy free.
