   • Peel and mash the bananas until they turn into a liquid consistency. You can use a fork or a blender for this step. Set aside once mashed.

2. Beat Eggs:

   • In a separate bowl, beat the eggs until well combined and slightly frothy. Set aside.

3. Cream Sugar and Shortening:

   • In a large mixing bowl, cream together the sugar and shortening until fluffy and well combined. This will create a smooth base for your bread.

4. Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients:

   • Gradually add the dry ingredients (flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt) into the creamed sugar and shortening mixture. Also, pour in the mashed bananas and beaten eggs. Mix until everything is fully incorporated and the batter becomes smooth.

5. Fold in Nuts:

   • Gently fold in the chopped walnuts into the batter. This will add a delicious crunch and nutty flavor to your banana bread.

6. Prepare Loaf Pans:

   • Grease two loaf pans generously to prevent sticking. You can use butter or cooking spray for this step.

7. Pour Batter:

   • Divide the batter evenly between the two greased loaf pans. Ensure the batter is spread evenly to ensure even baking.

8. Bake:

   • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Place the loaf pans on the lowest rack of the oven and bake for approximately 50 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the bread comes out clean.

9. Cool and Serve:

   • Once baked, remove the banana nut bread from the oven and allow it to cool in the pans for about 10 minutes. Then, transfer the loaves to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing and serving.

10. Enjoy:

    • Slice the decadent banana nut bread and serve it with your favorite spreads or enjoy it as is for a delightful treat any time of the day!
