How to Make Spicy Banana Bread

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Grease and flour two 9x5 inch loaf pans.
  3. In a large bowl, cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) of softened butter and 1 ½ cups granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
  4. Beat in 2 large eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition.
  5. In a separate bowl, whisk together 3 cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking soda, 1 teaspoon salt, 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon, ½ teaspoon ground cloves, and ¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg.
  6. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
  7. Add 3 ripe mashed bananas and mix until well incorporated.
  8. Stir in 1 cup chopped walnuts or pecans (optional).
  9. Divide the batter evenly between the prepared loaf pans.
  10. Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
  11. Let the bread cool in the pans for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
