Learn how to make the BEST banana nut bread there is! Super moist and loaded with freezer ripened bananas and walnuts. No dense and dry banana bread here! Don’t forget to save some slices of this for banana bread french toast on Sunday morning. 😉

What you’ll need:
3 medium bananas
1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter or margarine, softened
1 cup granulated sugar
2 large eggs
1 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 cup sour cream
1/2 cup chopped English walnuts or nuts of your choice (pecans, black walnuts, almonds, macadamia’s, etc)

Let bananas ripen on the counter until speckled and then freeze for 1-2 days. Take out to thaw 4-6 hours before you want to make the bread. Cut off the ends and squeeze banana and juices from peel into a bowl and mash with a fork.

In a large bowl, cream together butter and sugar. Add in eggs and vanilla and mix well. In a separate bowl, combine flour, soda and salt. Add dry ingredient mixture to wet mixture and mix well. Add in banana puree and sour cream and mix well and finally mix in nuts. Pour batter into a greased 9″ by 5″ loaf pan and bake in a 325*F preheated oven for 60-75 minutes or until a toothpick or knife inserted into the center comes out clean. Let cool for 10 minutes in the pan and then turn out. Slice and serve or store in an air tight container for 5-6 days. Makes 1 loaf. Enjoy!!

    All of my daughter dorm buddies at Northwestern university in Evanston
    Illinois said those were the best banana bread muffins around. My daughter
    said mom, please send more (for me) I don’t want to share this batch, lol.
    Thanks for sharing your recipe with us and I love your videos . . . . .

    Just made this and it came out amazing. Though I would suggest 350 degrees
    and using regular ripe bananas is fine. It baked for 80 mins at 325 and the
    inside is bit soft for my taste. 

  17. sapna sricharan

    I have always had trouble with my banana bread. I tried this recipe last
    night and it worked so very well. Thank you so much for sharing this
    recipe.

    Just made this for my husband and son. Their judgment “this is the best
    banana nut bread”. Thank you so much for the recipe, and your wonderful
    videos.

  22. FattyFrog

    I interested in your mixer, where can I get it.

  23. Dave Robarts

    I just tried your recipe…..turned out AWESOME, as in, TASTED FREAKING
    GREAT MAN! Note, I didn’t have sour cream or plain yogurt, so I used a
    single serving of peach Yoplait….seemed to work just fine. Kept tasting
    it(finished product) for hint of peach but got nothing. So there you go,
    improvised variables are ok. 

  24. squincegoddess
