Orange Banana Nut Bread

Orange Banana Nut Bread 1-1/2 C. sugar (I used light brown, lightly packed) 3 tablespoons vegetable oil (I used melted butter) 2 eggs 3 medium ripe bananas, mashed (about 1-1/4 C.) 3/4 orange juice 3 C. all purpose flour 1-1/2 teaspoons baking powder 1-1/2 teaspoons baking soda 1/2 teaspoon salt 1 C chopped walnuts In a bowl, combine the sugar, oil/butter and eggs. Mix well. Stir in bananas and orange juice. Combine the dry ingredients in a separate bowl; add to banana mixture, mixing just until moistened. Stir in walnuts. Pour into two greased 8" X 4" loaf pans. ( I lined mine with parchment paper instead.) Bake at 325 F for 50 to 60 minutes or until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean. Cool for 10 minutes; remove from pans to a wire rack and cool completely. Yield: 2 loaves.
