Notes

  • PRO TIP: For a great change up in this recipe, try adding a half cup of blueberries instead of nuts, a handful of chocolate chips added with the nuts or even a sprinkle of cinnamon to the final mix!
  • For this recipe, older bananas work best.  Older bananas impart more flavor. 
  • If pecans aren't your thing, its fine to substitute walnuts.  Feel free to leave the nuts out altogether. 
  • Allow the loaf to cool completely before turning it out.
