Step 1

Start by preheating the oven to 350ºF. Then oil the loaf pan/pans (or line with parchment paper) and chop the walnuts.

Step 2

In a medium bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, nutmeg, and salt and set aside.

Step 3

In a separate bowl, mash the bananas. Make sure not to leave any big chunks. Small chunks are fine though.

Step 4

Add the sugar and oil to the bananas and mix until evenly combined.

Step 5

Once the oil and sugar are incorporated, gently fold in the dry ingredients just enough for everything to come together.

Step 6

Now, gently fold in your walnut pieces or other mix-ins.

Step 7

Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan(s).

Step 8

Bake the banana bread at 350ºF for 30-40 minutes for mini loaves. Or 50-60 minutes for an 8x4-inch regular loaf. Test the bread with a toothpick for doneness. It will come out clean when the bread is ready. If the banana bread is still too moist bake at 5-minute intervals until done.
