How to Make Banana Whole Wheat Bread

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9x5 inch loaf pan.
  2. In a large bowl, mash the bananas with a fork until mostly smooth.
  3. Add the eggs, oil, and vanilla extract to the mashed bananas and mix well.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together the whole wheat flour, sugar, baking soda, baking powder, and salt.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
  6. Stir in the chopped walnuts (optional).
  7. Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and bake for 50-60 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
  8. Let the bread cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
