Scrape down the sides.
Add sugar and vanilla.

In a medium bowl, mix together flours, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
Add flour mixture to the banana mixture and beat or pulse in a food processor just until smooth.
By hand, fold in walnuts, if using.
Spread batter into prepared pan.
Bake for 30-35 minutes until lightly browned, springy to the touch, and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
