Banana Bread. I'm not a big fan of banana bread, but we had three or four bananas wasting away in the pantry so I decided to give this bread a shot. Banana bread is one of those things people rarely make on purpose, only when those last three bananas are almost black. This scrumptious banana-walnut loaf, spiked with dark chocolate chips, is so good you'll want to make it well before the bananas get to that condition.
Stir in eggs until well blended.
Stir in flour, baking soda and salt just until moistened.
Banana bread is a great way to use up extra bananas (or those ones that go brown).
You can have Banana Bread using 8 ingredients and 8 steps. Here is how you achieve that.

Banana Bread step by step
- Preheat oven to 350.

- Mix in the sugar, egg and vanilla.
- Sprinkle the baking soda and salt over the mixture and mix in.

- You can always add walnuts as well, sometimes I'll add raisins and sprinkle the top with oats.
In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt and cinnamon. I firmly believe that banana bread is something you should be able to make anytime and anywhere, with a mixer or with a fork, in a loaf pan or in a muffin tin — whenever you have a few bananas going soft and freckly. Banana bread is a "quick" bread made of very ripe bananas, sugar, butter, eggs, flour, vanilla, and a leavener. Since it is a quick bread, it uses baking soda rather than a yeast to help the bread rise as it cooks. Once the batter is mixed together, it is ready to bake immediately.
