Method

  1. Heat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9×5-inch loaf pan.
  2. Mash the bananas in a large bowl. Stir in the melted butter, then the sugar, egg and vanilla.
  3. Sprinkle the baking soda, salt and cinnamon over the batter and stir in. Add the flour and mix until just combined. Fold in the walnuts.
  4. Pour into the pan and bake 55–65 minutes, until a skewer comes out clean. Tent with foil if the top browns too fast.
  5. Cool 10 minutes in the pan, then turn out onto a rack.
