Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F. Grease an 8½ x 4½-inch loaf pan; set aside. In a medium bowl, sift or whisk together the flour, nutmeg, cinnamon, baking soda, and salt. Set aside. In a separate large bowl, whisk together the mashed banana, melted butter, sugar, egg, and vanilla extract.
  2. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, stirring just until combined. Fold in the walnuts. Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan.
  3. Bake until the bread is golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, about 50-60 minutes. Do not overbake.
  4. Remove from the oven, unmold from the pan, and cool completely on a wire rack before slicing and serving.

Notes

  • How to Ripen Bananas in the Oven: Want to make this bread right away, but your bananas aren’t ripe yet? You can ripen the bananas in the oven! To do so, preheat the oven to 300°F. Place bananas (in their peels) on a foil-lined baking sheet. Bake for 30-45 minutes, or until mushy and sweet. The banana peels will turn a black, shiny color (and look really weird!), but don’t worry — the insides will be perfect. In fact, they’re so soft, that you probably won’t even need to mash them with a fork. Allow the bananas to cool completely before using in the recipe.
