    2 large eggs
    1/2 cup granulated sugar
    1/2 cup packed brown sugar
    6.75 ounces all-purpose flour (about 1 1/2 cups) (I used whole wheat)
    1/4 cup of ground flaxseed (don’t sweat it if you don’t have it!)
    3/4 teaspoon baking soda
    1/2 teaspoon salt
    1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
    1/8 teaspoon ground allspice

    1/3 cup powdered sugar

    Directions:

    Preheat oven to 350.
    To prepare bread, combine first 5 ingredients in a large bowl; beat with a mixer at medium speed. Add granulated and brown sugars; beat until blended.
    Weigh or lightly spoon flour into dry measuring cups; level with a knife. Combine flour and next 5 ingredients (through all-spice) in a small bowl. Add flour mixture to banana mixture; beat just until blended. Stir in nuts. pour batter into a 9×5-inch loaf pan coated with cooking spray.
