I was hungry for banana bread but wanted something a little different. I couldn't find a recipe I liked so made my own. My husband said it was the best banana bread he has had! I was pleasantly surprised and very pleased! This was moist and light and very flavorful!

I'm thinking next time of adding a little cinnamon to it.

Cream sugar & butter together.
Add eggs, one at a time, and beat well after each addition.
Sift dry ingredients together 3 times.
Alternately stir in flour & bananas, ending with flour. DO NOT OVERSTIR! Overstirring will make your bread tough.

Pour into a greased and lightly floured loaf pan. Top batter with whole walnut halves if desired.
Bake in 350 degree oven 55-65 mins. or until a toothpick comes out with only a few crumbs.
