Whole Wheat Banana-Walnut Bread
It doesn't get any cozier or more classic than a delicious banana-walnut bread for breakfast. This one-loaf recipe whips up in just a few minutes and goes well with fresh fruit and Greek yogurt.
Instructions
- Preheat the air fryer to 360°F. Lightly coat the inside of a 8-by-4-inch loaf pan with olive oil cooking spray. (Or use two 5 ½-by-3-inch loaf pans.)
- In a large bowl, mash the bananas with a fork. Add the egg, yogurt, olive oil, vanilla, and honey. Mix until well combined and mostly smooth.
- Sift the whole wheat flour, salt, baking soda, and cinnamon into the wet mixture, then stir until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Gently fold in the walnuts.
- Pour into the prepared loaf pan and spread to distribute evenly.
- Place the loaf pan in the air fryer basket and bake for 20 to 23 minutes, or until golden brown on top and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Allow to cool for 5 minutes before serving.
COOKING TIP: If the bananas you have on hand are not yet ripe, simply remove the peels, place them in a microwave-safe bowl, and heat in 30-second increments until soft enough to mash.
