The Healthy Banana Oatmeal Walnut Bread is a quick re-invention of the traditional Banana bread. The bread more or less tastes like a cake and can be served in innumerable ways, either as a tea time snack, for breakfast or as a dessert topped with vanilla custard. The bread tastes so much like its traditional version that it is hard to tell the difference between the two. The oatmeal and walnuts make the bread wholesome and nutritious too.

NotesOat meal flour and whole wheat flour contain a lot of fiber, protein and other nutritional benefits over regular white flour. The whole grain flours are made of grains that are mildly processed to keep the nutrition intact. I used olive oil in the recipe instead of butter not just as a healthy swap of ingredient but also because of the increased level of moistness the olive oil provides to the cake making it very soft and delectable.
