  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a loaf pan with butter and set aside. Cream the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy.
  2. Add the eggs, one at a time, and beat until creamy and well combined. Add the heavy whipping cream and mashed bananas, and stir to mix well.
  3. Fold in the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and chopped walnuts. Stir to combine well.
  4. Transfer the batter into the greased loaf pan and top with the walnut halves.
  5. Bake for 50 to 60 minutes, or until a cake tester inserted into the banana nut bread comes out clean. Remove the loaf pan from the oven and let it cool for 10 minutes. Loosen the bread from the loaf pan, slice into 10 pieces, and serve warm.

Notes

  • Other than heavy whipping cream, you can use full milk or evaporated milk.
  • You may bake the banana nut bread in a round or rectangle cake pan.
