Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350°F.
- Spray 2 loaf pans with non-stick spray.
- Mash bananas.
- Combine sugar, oil and egg--mixing until creamy.
- Blend in mashed bananas.
- In a separate bowl, combine whole wheat flour, ground flax seed, salt, baking soda. (Add the nuts to the dry ingredients at this point). Combine wet and dry ingredients, but do not overmix.
- Pour batter into loaf pans and bake approximately 1 hour-testing with a toothpick at the hour, and then as needed.
- Note: Because the batter is dense you will need to watch the baking time to be sure it is adequate--don't only go by color, flax seed will add darkness.
Tips:
- Use ripe bananas for the best flavor and texture. Overripe bananas are ideal, as they are sweeter and have a more intense banana flavor.
- If you don't have flaxseed meal, you can grind whole flaxseeds in a coffee grinder or food processor until they resemble a fine meal.
- To make the bread gluten-free, use gluten-free flour instead of all-purpose flour.
- For a sweeter bread, add an extra tablespoon of honey or maple syrup to the batter.
- If you like nuts in your bread, add a handful of chopped walnuts, pecans, or almonds to the batter.
- To make the bread extra moist, add a tablespoon of melted coconut oil or butter to the batter.
- Be careful not to overmix the batter, as this can result in a tough bread.
- Bake the bread until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let the bread cool completely before slicing and serving.
