In a separate bowl, crack 1 large egg at room temperature and add 1 cup of sugar and 1/2 cup of canola oil. Mix until combined, ensuring the sugar is dissolved as much as possible.

Add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture and mix with a rubber spatula until just combined, avoiding overmixing.

Add 2 tablespoons of room temperature soy milk and 1/2 teaspoon of vanilla extract to the mixture and stir until combined.

Mash 3 ripe bananas in a separate bowl and then add to the mixture, stirring until evenly distributed.

Fold in 1/2 cup of chopped walnuts into the batter until evenly mixed.

Pour the batter into the prepared nonstick pan and smooth out the top with a rubber spatula.

Sprinkle 1/3 cup of chopped walnuts on top of the batter before baking.
