My daughter and I took a fantastic trip to California during the spring and one of our favorite parts of the trip was our stay at the Hyatt Regency Huntington Beach. We could both be happy as clams just playing on the beach all day what really made the destination even more memorable was posh Hyatt Regency accommodations and some of the fantastic food we ate at on site restaurants. While we were at the Watertable Restaurant, we tried their signature Acocana Bread, which was a avocado banana bread recipe that was simply delicious! I asked for the recipe to share with y’all and they graciously provided it!
Avocado Banana Bread Recipe

Yields: One Loaf
Avocado Banana Bread Recipe Ingredients
1/3 cup old-fashioned oats
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 tsp. baking powder
1 tsp. baking soda
1/2 tsp. salt
1 tsp. cinnamon
1 ripe fresh California avocado, pitted (you use the pit to grow an avocado)
1/4 cup canola oil
1 cup (packed) brown sugar
2 eggs
2 very ripe bananas (brown spots on the skin just means they will be more sweet and flavorful in baking)
1/2 cup chopped walnuts
1/4 cup buttermilk
How To Make Homemade Avocado Banana Bread
When you eat at the Watertable, they will cook and serve your Avocana bread in a small mason jar so that the portion is just right for you. The load pan works great at home though. They also whip up a batch of fresh honey butter to slather on your avocado banana bread. It is really a great way to start your morning!
Line a 9 x 5 x 3 inch loaf pan with nonstick foil and lightly grease the bottom only.
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
Combine dry ingredients: oats, flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt and cinnamon. Set aside.
Scoop the avocado into a large bowl and mash lightly.
Add oil and brown sugar to the avocado. Cream together using an electric mixer, until light and creamy.
Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition.
Peel the bananas. Stir in the bananas, then walnuts and dry ingredients.
Stir in buttermilk and beat just until buttermilk is incorporated.
Pour into prepared loaf pan and bake in preheated oven for 1 hour and 10 minutes. Avocana bread is quite moist and may not pass the “toothpick” test at this point. If you prefer a drier bread, bake a little longer. Allow to cool, slice and serve.
