Instructions

  1. Start by inserting the steam rack into a pressure cooker and adding 1 1/2 cups of water; grease a 6-inch round cake pan.

  2. In one bowl, combine flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon.

  3. In another bowl, whisk eggs, sugar, sour cream, melted butter, and vanilla extract, then mix in mashed banana.

  4. Add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture and stir to combine, then fold in chopped walnuts.

  5. Transfer batter to the prepared pan, cover with foil, and place the pan on the steam rack in the pressure cooker.

  6. Secure the lid, set to high pressure, and cook for 40 minutes.

  7. After cooking, use the quick release method to vent steam, then carefully open the lid once pressure is fully released.

  8. Place the pan on a wire rack to cool for 10 minutes, then invert the bread onto the rack to cool completely.

  9. Dust with powdered sugar if desired before serving.
