Description
Warning! Addictive! This is such a delicious version of traditional banana bread and is extremely popular whenever I make it that I had to share it on Allrecipes! I got it from an old Bed and Breakfast recipe from a place in Maryland and make it every year around the holidays! I don’t use the walnuts, but I hear that it is really good for those that like them. This recipe has definitely become a new tradition!
