This is my banana bread recipe that I go to anytime I make banana bread.  This is easy to put together, and the nuts are optional.  My recommendation for this banana bread is to use King Arthur Flour because it produces a better bread.

1 3/4 C. flour
2/3 C. sugar 
2 tsp. baking powder
1/2 tsp. baking soda
1/4 tsp. salt
1 cup mashed ripe banana (2 to 3 medium bananas)
1/3 C. softened butter
2 Tbsp. milk
2 eggs
1/4 C. chopped nuts

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.  In a large mixer bowl combine 1 cup of the flour, the sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.  Add mashed banana; softened butter, and milk.  Beat with an electric mixer on low speed till blended, then on high speed for 2 minutes.  Add eggs and remaining flour, beat till blended.  Stir in nuts.

Pour batter into a greased 8×4x2-inch loaf pan.  Bake at 350 degrees for 55 to 60 minutes or until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean.  Cool for 10 minutes on a wire rack.  Remove from pan; cool thoroughly on a wire rack.  Wrap and store overnight before slicing.
