Instructions
Banana Nut Bread
- Preheat the oven to 350°F. Grease the loaf pan with shortening and then, if desired, the bottom with parchment paper. Set aside.
- In a large mixing bowl or the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, cream together the shortening and sugar until light and fluffy. Add the vanilla, eggs and mashed bananas and blend on low until incorporated.
- In a separate medium bowl sift together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon and nutmeg. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture until combined. Do not overmix.
- By hand, fold in the walnuts. Lightly coat a 9-inch bread pan with cooking spray and line bottom with parchment paper for easy removal. Transfer batter into bread pan.
- Bake for 30 minutes then remove to add the streusel topping. Return to the oven for an additional 25-30 minutes, checking for doneness using the toothpick test. If it starts to brown on the top, loosely over with a leaf of aluminum foil. Remove and allow to cool for at least 30 minutes before removing from the loaf pan and cutting into slices using a serrated knife.
Streusel Topping
- In a small bowl, combine the flour, brown sugar, salt and cinnamon.
- Using the back of a fork, blend in the softened butter until it makes large clumps. Sprinkle this topping over the top of the banana bread at the 30-minute marl.
