Ingredients
- 1 2/3 cups all-purpose flour ($0.35)
- 1 tsp baking soda ($0.01)
- 1/4 tsp ground cinnamon ($0.04)
- 1/2 tsp salt ($0.00)
- 1 cup sugar ($1.31)
- 2 eggs ($0.58)
- 1/2 cup olive oil ($0.96)
- 3 1/2 bananas, very ripe ($1.16)
- 2 Tbsp greek yogurt ($0.15)
- 1 tsp vanilla extract ($0.19)
- 2/3 cup walnuts, toasted and chopped ($0.78)
Instructions
- Prepare all your ingredients. Preheat oven to 350° F. Line the bottom of a loaf pan with parchment paper. Grease sides of the pan with olive oil or butter.
- Mash the bananas in a bowl and set aside.
- In a new bowl, sift together the flour, baking soda, cinnamon and salt.
- In a separate bowl, beat the sugar and eggs with a large whisk until light and fluffy, approximately 10 minutes. (If using an electric or stand mixer, mix on med/high for 5 minutes.) Note: Use a large bowl since everything will be combined into this bowl. I used a medium bowl by mistake and switched bowls in step 7.
- Slowly add olive oil into bowl with egg mixture.
- Incorporate mashed bananas, yogurt, and vanilla into bowl (this becomes your wet ingredients).
- Now fold dry ingredients (flour mix) with your wet ingredients until combined.
- Fold nuts into bowl until combined.
- Pour mixture into a lined loaf pan and bake in center of oven for about 45 minutes to 1 hour until toothpick (or skewer) in the center is clean.
- Once it’s out of the oven, let rest for 5 minute in the pan. Enjoy!
