Notes
I love to add a bit of crunch to my banana bread by mixing in nuts. However, you can also leave them out if you prefer a nut free banana bread. Or you can replace them with any kind of nuts like pecan nuts, cashews, almonds or whatever you like best. Another nice variation to this recipe is adding chocolate chips to the dough.
