If using walnuts, fold them into the batter at this stage.
Grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan and pour the batter into it. Smooth the top and bake in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for 50-60 minutes.
Check the bread for doneness by inserting a toothpick into the center. If it comes out clean, the bread is ready. Remove it from the oven and let it cool on a wire rack for at least 10 minutes before slicing.
Conclusion
Tips:Use a mature sourdough starter for the best flavor and texture.Don't overmix the batter, as this can result in a dense loaf. Fold in any walnuts or other mix-ins at the end to maintain the batter's lightness.Store the banana bread in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or freeze for up to 2 months.
