How to make banana bread

Preheat the oven to 350 and butter and flour a 9 x 13 pan. The flour and butter will allow to the banana bread to come out easily once it's baked. I don't use a bread pan on purpose. I like the texture of the bread this way, and it seems easier to cut, serve and freeze if I have any leftover.

Enlist your little helper. This is my 6 year old helper. She did an excellent job mashing those bananas, and she had fun doing it!

Cream together the softened butter and sugar.

Beat in the vanilla and the eggs, one at a time. Add the vanilla and bananas and beat together. Mix in the dry ingredients until combined. Batter may be thick.

Fold in the chopped walnuts and put into the prepared pan.

Bake at 350 for 40 minutes or until golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out dry. I like to eat mine warm from the oven with butter. This recipe also freezes well! Wrap this perfect banana nut bread in individual pieces in plastic wrap and freeze it in freezer bags. My kids can grab an individual piece for a snack or quick breakfast on the go. Enjoy!
