Starbuck's Banana Walnut Bread

Another very good banana bread recipe. This one has walnuts, which my family doesn't enjoy, so I skipped them for the insides.

Ingredients:

2 cups flour

1 teaspoon baking soda

1/4 teaspoon salt

1 egg

1 1/8 cups sugar

1/2 cup vegetable oil

2 tablespoons buttermilk

1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

3 ripe medium-large bananas, mashed

1/2 cup chopped walnuts

1/3 cup chopped walnuts (in addition to 1/2 cup)

Directions:

1. Preheat oven to 325. Grease a 9x5x3 loaf pan and dust with flour.
2. Blend the flour, baking soda, and salt; set aside.
3. Mix the egg, sugar, and vegetable oil until combined.
4. Add the flour mixture to the egg mixture and when blended, add the buttermilk, vanilla, and mashed bananas; mix well.
5. Fold 1/2 cup of chopped walnuts and pour batter into prepared loaf pan.
6. Top the batter with remaining 1/3 cup of walnuts.
7. Bake for 45-60 minutes until a toothpick comes out clean.
