Walnut Quick Bread

"The perfect size for one or two people when baked in two mini loaf pans. Eat one now and store one for later. Freezes very well. Tastes best when tightly wrapped and allowed to set overnight. I like to use walnut or coconut oil, but any neutral/mild tasting oil will do fine. There are variations listed below."

  1. I really love this recipe, now my go to Nut bread. I did add cinnamon and sprinkled raw sugar on top. It was moist, flavorible and attractive.
     
  2. This made a perfect size loaf in a regular pan. Excellent moist flavor! I did not put the nuts on the top. I put them in the batter. I used walnuts. I made a second loaf also and followed exact instructions with walnuts put put two very ripe mashed bananas and that was also delicious! This is quick and very easy. Thanks for posting.
