Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Spray a standard size loaf pan with cooking spray, and then line the long end with parchment paper. This will make it easier to get it out of the pan after baking. You will probably need to cut it to fit the pan.
It is important to mash the bananas in a separate smaller bowl to be able to measure the amount. Bananas are all different sizes, so you are going to measure out 1 cup of mashed bananas.
Combine all of the ingredients, except for the walnuts, in a large mixing bowl. No need to whisk the dry ingredients first. Just whisk all of the ingredients together until you don't have any more clumps. Then add in the walnuts and use a spoon or spatula to mix them in.
Carefully pour the batter into a parchment lined loaf pan, smoothing out the top with a spoon or spatula.
Bake at 350 degrees for 40-50 minutes, until the loaf is golden brown on top and the bread is cooked through the center. You can stick a knife into the middle, and if it comes out clean then it is done.
After you remove the pan from the oven, let it cool for at least 10 minutes before removing it from the pan. You can use a knife to loosen the ends, and then pull up on the parchment paper to transfer it to a wire rack. Let it cook for another 5-10 minutes before cutting into it so that it doesn't crumble too much.
