banana pecan bread




yeah yeah, i know - you're probably sick of pecans by now... but i gotta tell you, matt and i aren't! they are actually probably my favourite nuts. you can do so many fabulous things with them! you can add them to vegetables, put them in pies and tarts, they go well with pumpkin, with apples and cinnamon! you can eat them for breakfast, snacks, or dessert! (those are only about half of my pecan-related recipes, BTW!)

so annnyway... i have a freezer full of frozen bananas right now, and when i offered to make matt banana pecan bread, his eyes lit up so fast! 




i used my classic banana bread recipe, but for a healthier option, you could go the vegan/less sugar route.

either way, i just added 1/2 c chopped pecans to the batter


and sprinkled an additional 1/4 c on top before baking


and voila, beautiful banana pecan bread!


(i love how the nuts get all crispy and roasty on top! yum!)
