Honey-Sweetened Whole Wheat Banana Nut Loaf

Honey-Sweetened Whole Wheat Banana Nut Loaf is moist and warmly aromatic, with ripe banana richness, vanilla notes, and a toasty crunch from chopped walnuts. The whole wheat flour adds a hearty, nutty depth without weighing the crumb down. Ideal for a cozy breakfast, an afternoon snack with coffee, or gifting fresh from the oven.

    In a large bowl, beat the oil and honey together. Add the eggs and mix well. Stir in the bananas and vanilla. Stir in the flour and salt. Dissolve the baking soda in hot water, stir to combine, then add it to the batter. Blend in the chopped nuts. Spread the batter in the prepared pan.

    Bake until a toothpick inserted into the center of the loaf comes out clean, 55 to 60 minutes. Cool on a wire rack for 1/2 hour before slicing.
