How to Make Liisa's Best Banana Nut Bread
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and parchment line a 9x5 inch loaf pan.
- In a large bowl, cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, 1 ¾ cups granulated sugar, and 2 large eggs until light and fluffy.
- Mash 3 ripe bananas and add them to the creamed mixture. Mix well.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together 2 ½ cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking soda, 1 teaspoon salt, 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, and ½ teaspoon ground nutmeg.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
- Stir in ½ cup milk and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
- Fold in 1 cup chopped pecans.
- Pour batter into the prepared loaf pan and bake for 60-75 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean. If making mini muffins, bake at 350°F (175°C) for 20-25 minutes.
- Let the bread cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
