How to Make Friendship Banana Nut Bread
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour two 9x5 inch loaf pans. Set aside.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together 2 cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking soda, 1 teaspoon salt, 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, and ½ teaspoon ground nutmeg. Set aside.
- In a large bowl, cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter and 1 ¾ cups granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
- Mash 3 ripe bananas and add them to the creamed butter and sugar mixture. Mix well.
- Stir in ½ cup friendship starter and 2 large eggs. Mix until just combined.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Fold in 1 cup chopped walnuts or pecans.
- Pour batter evenly into the prepared loaf pans.
- Bake for 40-50 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean. Start checking at 40 minutes.
- Let the loaves cool in the pans for 10 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
