This recipe for banana bread came from a forumite on a running forum and it's going in my recipe spreadsheet.

While this recipe uses all whole wheat, the texture as dense as you'd expect.
I just deleted a sentence explaining the subtle nuances of the whole wheat coupled with a bit of nutmeg and how it compliments the banana flavor because it sounded strained, so just make the recipe because I said so and because you'll like it. :GT:

GT's Banana Bread
>Ingredients:
- 3/4 c plus 2 tbsp sugar
- 1.5 C whole wheat flour
- 1 tsp. baking soda
- 1/2 tsp. salt
- 1/2 tsp. nutmeg
- 1 large egg, beaten
- 3 smashed over-ripe Banana (me: mixed with 1 tsp lemon juice)
- 1/4 C melted butter
- Me: 2 tbsp. milk
- Optional: chopped toasted walnuts, maybe like 1/2 cup
Directions:
- Preheat oven to 350°. Grease an 8x4-inch loaf pan and set aside. Whisk dry ingredients in a medium bowl. Mix wet ingredients in a separate bowl; add to dry ingredients and stir just until combined. Note from recipe concerning thickness of batter: It's thick but it's supposed to be; you won't complain.
- Spoon batter to loaf pan and bake for about an hour or until a skewer inserted in the middle comes out cleanish. Cool in pan for 10 minutes before removing banana bread and letting cool on a wire rack.
