Gluten Free Banana Walnut Bread

Banana bread is one of those baked goods that should feel completely effortless, and this version delivers exactly that — a deeply golden loaf packed with warm cinnamon, sweet ripe banana, and crunchy toasted walnuts in every slice. The secret weapon here is toasting the walnuts before folding them into the batter, which draws out their nutty richness and keeps them from tasting flat or raw. Whole-milk yogurt and melted butter work together to keep the crumb moist and tender, which is exactly what you want when baking without traditional wheat flour. A good gluten free flour blend does all the heavy lifting in the dry ingredients, so there's no complicated mix of starches or gums to track down. The batter comes together in two bowls with just a spatula — no mixer required — making this a genuinely low-effort bake that still looks and tastes impressive. With 10 slices per loaf, it's perfect for sharing at brunch, packing into lunchboxes throughout the week, or honestly just eating warm off the rack with a little extra butter.
