Banana Nut Teabread

SueVM's Note:

I have made this recipe many times over the years and my DH loves it, I hope you will too. This delicious banana bread uses a food processor, it can be done equally by hand if you don't own one. The quantity given makes 1 large loaf. It comes from the British book of food processors properly explained by Dianne Page.
