Ingredients
- 2 bananas overripe
- ½ cup granulated sugar
- ¼ cup vegetable oil
- 1 cup apple juice or apple cider
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
- ½ cup old-fashioned rolled oats
- 2 tablespoons baking powder
- 1 tablespoon baking soda
- ¼ teaspoon kosher salt
- ½ cup pecans chopped
- ½ cup walnuts chopped
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400°F. Spray two 8" x 4 ½" loaf pans with nonstick baking spray.
- Mash up the two bananas using a fork in a large bowl. They do not need to be completely smooth.
- Sprinkle in the sugar to the mashed bananas. Using a rubber spatula or a hand mixer, beat the sugar and bananas together until well-combined.
- Pour the oil, apple juice and vanilla into the banana/sugar mixture. Stir until blended.
- Measure the all-purpose flour, old-fashioned rolled oats, baking powder, baking soda and salt into another bowl. Whisk until combined. (This will ensure that the ingredients are evenly spread throughout the bread.)
- Sprinkle the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Add the chopped nuts, too. Stir with a rubber spatula until just combined.
- Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pans. Sprinkle additional chopped nuts to the tops of the loafs, if desired.
- Place the loaf pans on top of a baking sheet and transfer to the preheated oven.
- Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a dark golden brown and baked through. (To confirm the banana bread has baked through, test with a butter knife or a wooden toothpick.)
- Allow to cool for 5 minutes, then turn the pans over to release the bread, slice and enjoy!
Notes
- If you are looking for a sweet banana bread recipe, this one is not for you. I intentionally added less sugar to let the banana sing, so if you'd like a sweeter breakfast, I suggest trying another recipe.
- SUBSTITUIONS:
- Don't like nuts? Leave them out!
- No apple juice on hand? Pear juice or another milder tasting fruit juice would work in its place. Do not use orange juice, as that will change the flavor profile of this bread.
