Banana Nut Bread

Preheat oven to 350-degrees. Line two 9-inch x 5-inch loaf pans with parchment paper and spray the bottom and sides of the parchment paper with baking spray. Set aside.

In the bowl of your stand mixer, affixed with the paddle attachment, add the butter, oil, white sugar and brown sugar. Mix on medium-high speed until light and fluffy. Scrape down the sides of the bowl as needed. Add the eggs to the mixture, one at a time, mixing the first egg in completely before adding the second egg. Add in the vanilla extract.

Change the mixer to low speed, and slowly add the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon and nutmeg into the mixer. As the dry ingredients are being mixed, slowly stream in the milk to the batter. Add the mashed bananas and mix until incorporated. Remove the bowl from the mixer and fold in the chopped walnuts.

Pour the batter evenly into two prepared loaf pans. Bake the loaves in 350-degree oven for 45-50 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the middle comes out without raw batter on it.

Remove baked bread from the oven and set on a wire rack to cool. Once the banana bread has cooled, use the parchment paper to lift the bread out of the pan, and then cut into desired sized slices.
