Healthy Oatmeal Banana Bread

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan or line it with parchment paper.

In a large mixing bowl, combine the mashed bananas, honey (or maple syrup), beaten eggs, and vanilla extract. Mix until smooth.

In another bowl, blend together the rolled oats, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon.

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring until just combined. If using, fold in the chopped nuts.

Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and spread it evenly.

Bake in the preheated oven for 50-60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Allow the bread to cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely.
