Tip: Want to make chocolate chip banana bread or pecan banana bread instead? No problem, simply remove the ½ cup of walnuts and replace it with ½ cup any other ingredient you would like to add and follow the steps as written. Wonderful banana bread that will be my go-to recipe from now on. I'm crazy about the icing as was my family. I also like that this bread is not heavy/dense.
