Recipe Instructions
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease and flour two 9x5-inch loaf pans.
Step 2
Sift flour, baking soda, and salt into a large bowl.
Step 3
Cream sugar and butter together in a separate bowl. Stir in bananas, eggs, and walnuts until well blended.
Step 4
Pour wet ingredients into flour mixture and stir just until blended. Divide the batter evenly between the two prepared pans.
Step 5
Bake in the preheated oven until a paring knife inserted into the crown of each loaf comes out clean, 60 to 70 minutes.
Step 6
Remove from the oven and let loaves cool in the pans for at least 5 minutes. Turn out onto a cooling rack, and let cool completely, about 30 minutes.
Step 7
Slice and serve. For more intense flavor, wrap each loaf in aluminum foil to keep in the moisture, then refrigerate for at least 2 hours before serving.
