How to Make A Winning Banana Nut Bread
- Preheat oven to 180°C (350°F). Grease and flour a 23x13x7 cm loaf tin.
- Peel and mash 3 ripe bananas. Mix in 1 tablespoon of lemon juice.
- In a large bowl, sift together 250g cake flour, 5g baking powder, and 2g salt.
- Add 200g granulated sugar and 100g chopped walnuts (or pecans). Mix well.
- In a separate bowl, beat 2 large egg yolks. Add to the flour mixture along with 100g softened butter or margarine. Mix until just combined.
- Gently fold in the mashed banana mixture and 1 teaspoon of lemon zest.
- In a clean bowl, beat 2 large egg whites until stiff peaks form. Gently fold into the batter using a metal spoon.
- Pour batter into the prepared loaf tin. Level the top and sprinkle with extra chopped nuts, if desired.
- Bake for 60-70 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let the bread cool in the tin for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
