How to Make Banana Nut Crunch Bread
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9x5 inch loaf pan.
- In a large bowl, mash the bananas until mostly smooth. Add the eggs, oil, and vanilla extract; mix well.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, and nutmeg.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
- Stir in the chopped walnuts and pecans.
- For the crumble topping: In a medium bowl, combine the flour, brown sugar, oats, butter, and cinnamon. Use your fingers or a pastry blender to cut the butter into the dry ingredients until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan. Sprinkle the crumble topping evenly over the batter.
- Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean. If the top starts to brown too quickly, tent it loosely with foil.
- Let the bread cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor
Elevate your dish with simple flavor boosters! A final flourish of freshly chopped herbs can add incredible brightness, while a squeeze of lemon or lime juice right before serving can awaken all the flavors. Don't underestimate a sprinkle of quality finishing salt or a drizzle of good olive oil to make your creation shine.
