4 large bananas (or 5 small bananas)
½ cup unsalted butter melted
⅔ cup granulated sugar
2 large eggs room temperature

- Preheat the oven to 350°F: lightly grease a 9×5 inch loaf pan and set aside.
- In a large mixing bowl mash the bananas with a fork or a potato masher.
- Add the melted butter to the bananas and whisk until combined. Add the sugar, eggs and vanilla extract and mix well.
- Add the dry ingredients and mix gently into the wet ingredients just until combined.
- Add the combination of chopped Regal Nuts and fold in using a spatula. Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan.
