"A man who was fond of wine was offered some grapes at dessert after dinner. "Much obliged," said he, pushing the plate aside; "I am not accustomed to take my wine in pills."--Jean Antheleme Brillat-Savarin, The Physiology of Taste

Top batter with remaining 1/3 cup chopped walnuts. Bake for 45 to 60 minutes, until toothpick inserted in centercomesoutclean. Cool for 10 minutes on a wire rack before removing from pan.

Tips:
I typically use 4-5 bananas.
The riper the bananas are, the sweeter the bread.
Personal Notes:
Personal Notes:
There's no such thing as a bad banana! If it is too ripe for you to eat, freeze them (skin and all) until you have a few to make banana bread or muffins. I always add at least 2 more than the recipe calls for. When frozen, the skin will turn dark and the fruit will be mushy when thawed, so be sure to thaw on a plate. There will be a lot of juice when you peel the thawed fruit. Not a pretty sight, but pretty flavorful!
