Healthy whole wheat Banana Nut Bread

Banana nut bread big size for adults and mini for my kid

Today, we had banana nut bread for break fast which is very healthy, unbelievably simple to make and absolutely moist and delicious. Earlier, I posted a banana nut muffin recipe that comes in a much cuter packs but this is the healthiest and tastes awesome.

Adding walnuts (high in omega 3) to this bread gives a very nice crunch and taste. You have to try it, to believe it.

I made 2 breads, bigger one for my DH and me and the mini version for my kid who loved and wanted in his lunch box.

Good idea as a break fast or evening snack.

I am considering this recipe under 30 min, since the prep time is less than 30 min and you can stick it in the oven until it is done.
