Banana Nut Bread


Banana bread seems to have found its way into the hearts of all. It has the ability to bring back warm childhood memories of the pleasant aroma that fills the house while it bakes to perfection. Everyone seems to perk up in anticipation for the time to slice into it. 


Of course, everyone has their preferred mix ins. There are the nut lovers, and the chocoholics, and the ones happy with just plain and simple. And then there's the texture. Some love a moist bread with a heavy banana flavor, while others prefer it drier, with a mere hint of banana. 
And then we come to the best part. The topping. Whether it be a sticky glaze or a simple crunchy coating of sugar, the top is always the best part. Banana bread has to be one of the most versatile foods out there.
I personally have always enjoyed my banana bread studded with as much stuff as I can find. Walnuts, pecans, chocolate chips, raisins, cranberries...the list could go on and on. The top always has to have some sort of mix of nuts and sugar. The perfect crunch to go with the super sweet and soft insides.
