Description
A hearty banana bread with cranberries, walnuts and oats.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 ripe bananas, mashed
- 1/3 cup butter, melted
- 1 egg, beaten
- 3/4 cup brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- Juice from half of a lemon
- 1 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 cup oats
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup chopped walnuts (optional)
- 1 cup fresh cranberries, roughly chopped
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Spray two small loaf pans with cooking spray.
- In a large bowl combine the mashed bananas, melted butter, egg, brown sugar, vanilla, and lemon juice. In a medium bowl whisk together the flour, oats, baking soda, salt. Stir in the chopped walnuts.
- Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and stir until just combined. Fold in the chopped cranberries. The batter will be thick.
- Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pans and bake at 350 degrees for 30-40 minutes or until an inserted toothpick comes out clean (start checking at 30 minutes – mine took about 35 minutes to bake, but your oven may be different). Allow the bread to cool in the pan before removing and slicing.
