3 very ripe bananas (medium/large)
½ cup unsalted butter (8 Tbsp) at room temperature
3/4 cup granulated sugar
2 large eggs, lightly beaten
1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
1 tsp baking soda
½ tsp salt
½ tsp vanilla extract
1 cup walnuts
½ cup raisins
Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C).
Grease and flour a bread loaf pan (9.25 long x 5.25 wide x 2.75 deep).
Lightly roast walnuts on a skillet, continuously stirring so they won't burn.
Coarsely chop and cool to room temperature.
In a mixing bowl, cream together 8 Tbsp softened butter and 3/4 cup sugar (or honey if using honey).
Mash bananas with a fork until the consistency of chunky applesauce and add them to the batter along with 2 eggs, mixing until blended.
In a separate bowl, whisk together: 1 1/2 cups of flour, 1 tsp of baking soda and 1/2 tsp of salt then add to batter.
Add 1/2 tsp of vanilla extract and mix in chopped walnuts and raisins.
Pour into prepared loaf pan.
Bake at 350°F (180°C) for 55-60 min or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Let banana bread rest for 10 min before transferring to a wire rack to cool.
