  • 3 medium Bananas, very ripe
  • 2 cups Flour

  • Vegetable cooking spray
  • 1/2 cup Walnuts (optional)

mixer. Add eggs to sugar mixture.
3. Peel and slice bananas. Mash them with a fork. Add to mixture in bowl and mix well.
4. In a small bowl, stir together flour, baking soda, and baking powder.
5. Add half the flour mixture to the banana mixture. With a large spoon, stir until all the flour is wet.
