## Instructions

1. Mash three or four super ripe bananas in a bowl.
2. Preheat your oven to 325°F.
3. Ensure you have about a cup and a half of mashed banana.
4. Add one large egg, half a cup of sugar, and half a cup of brown sugar to the mashed bananas.
5. Add half a cup of vegetable oil and mix well until cohesive.
6. Add about a teaspoon of vanilla extract and two tablespoons of milk, then mix it all in.
7. Add about an eighth of a teaspoon or less (about five drops) of sesame oil.
8. In a bigger bowl, add two cups (about 240 grams) of all-purpose flour.
9. Add 3/4 of a teaspoon of baking soda, 1/4 teaspoon of baking powder, half a teaspoon of salt, 1/4 teaspoon of cinnamon, and a shake of nutmeg to the flour.
10. Whisk the dry ingredients together.
11. Add the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients.
12. Mix just until there are a few flour spots left, avoiding overmixing.
13. Roughly crush 1/3 cup of pecans and 2/3 cup of walnuts in a Ziploc bag, shaking to mix.
14. Fold about half of the crushed nuts into the batter.
15. Butter or spray a standard 8 1/2 by 4 1/2 inch loaf pan on the bottom and a little up the sides, but not all the way up.
16. Pour the batter into the prepared pan.
17. Sprinkle the remaining nuts on top of the batter.
18. Bake in the 325°F oven for about 45 minutes before checking.
19. Continue baking until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, which will likely be around 50 to 55 minutes, or up to 65 minutes.
20. Cool the banana bread in the pan for 15 to 20 minutes.
21. Remove from the pan and let it cool completely for an hour or two.

## Tips

- Preheat oven to 325°F.
- Mix wet and dry ingredients just until a few flour spots remain to avoid overmixing.
- Do not butter the loaf pan all the way up the sides so the batter can grab on.

- Banana bread can be sliced and frozen; it tastes better once thawed.
