【Banana Bread】
by MaomaoMom
Both my husband and Maomao love bananas. Often bananas become too ripe before they can finish. So I used two ripe bananas to make this banana bread for breakfast, nice choice.

Meal type: Dessert

Cook time: 50 minutes

3) 1.5 tsp baking powder (7g), 1/3 tsp baking soda (1.5g), ¼ tsp salt, 1.5 tsp cinnamon;
4) ¼ cup crushed walnuts;
5) 2 ripe bananas (204g net weight) mashed;
