Ingredients:
- 3 very ripe large bananas, mashed (equals at least 1 cup or slightly more)
- 2 eggs (room temp)
- 1/3 cup pure maple syrup
- 1/2 cup non-dairy plain or vanilla yogurt (I used SO Delicious dairy-free coconut milk yogurt alternative)
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 ¾ cups all-purpose flour, sifted
- 1 tsp baking soda
- 1/2 tsp cinnamon
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1/3 cup olive oil
- 3/4 cup chopped walnuts
Start by preparing an 8 ½ x 4 ½ loaf pan by greasing and lightly flouring it (or line with parchment paper.) Preheat oven to 350℉ / 175℃.
Add first five ingredients to a large bowl and mix together until well combined. (Bananas, eggs, maple syrup, yogurt alternative and vanilla extract.)
In a separate medium sized bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, cinnamon and salt.
Then add to the wet ingredients and mix just until combined. (Do not overmix.)
Next, mix in the olive oil and then fold in the walnuts.
Evenly pour bread batter into prepared loaf pan. Bake on middle rack for 50-55 minutes or until toothpick inserted in middle comes out clean. (A few moist crumbs attached is even better!)
Let bread cool in pan, on a rack, for about 10 minutes, then remove and transfer to wire rack for continued cooling…
…or slice right away for a warm, scrumptious treat!
