Banana bread
Bananas are among the most important food crops on the planet. They are a healthy source of fiber, potassium, vitamin B6, vitamin C, and various antioxidants and phytonutrients. Walnuts provide healthy fats, fiber, vitamins and minerals, and they are heart healthy. They have higher antioxidant activity than any other tree nut, promote a healthy gut, discourage the buildup of plaque in the arteries, and can help reduce inflammation. Studies also show they may help lower blood pressure. A single one-ounce serving of walnuts provides 4.8 grams of protein, 7% of your daily dietary fiber, 11% of the magnesium needed daily, 4% of the iron, and 10% of vitamin B6 we need for good health.
