I was at Starbucks earlier today and they were handing out recipe cards with some of the recipes of the foodie items that they make and sell. This is an authentic Starbucks recipe.

Banana Walnut Bread

2 cups flour
1 tsp. baking soda
1/4 tsp. salt
1 egg
1 1/8 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup vegetable oil
2 tbsp. buttermilk
1/2 tsp. vanilla extract
3 ripe bananas (mashed)
1/2 + 1/3 cup chopped walnuts

Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Grease a loaf pan and dust with flour. Blend together the flour, baking soda and salt and set aside. Mix together the egg, sugar and vegetable oil until combined. Add the flour mixture and when blended add the buttermilk, vanilla and mashed bananas and mix until combined. Fold in 1/2 cup chopped walnuts and pour batter into prepared loaf pan. Top batter with remaining 1/3 cup of chopped walnuts. Bake for 45-60 minutes, until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Cool for 10 minutes on a wire rack before removing from pan.
