My nanna Towgood has been making this blender banana bread for over 40 years, and it's a family favorite — moist, flavorful, and just the right amount of sweetness. You may substitute chocolate chips for the walnuts if desired.
Ingredients:
2 small very ripe bananas, sliced
1 cup white sugar
½ cup buttermilk
½ cup vegetable oil
2 large eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
⅛ teaspoon salt
½ cup chopped walnuts
Directions:
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan.
Combine bananas, sugar, buttermilk, oil, eggs, and vanilla in a blender; process until smooth. Sift together flour, cinnamon, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in a large bowl. Pour banana mixture over dry ingredients and mix well. Stir in nuts. Pour batter into the prepared loaf pan.
Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center of loaf comes out clean, 55 to 60 minutes.
