One of the best banana breads! Mmmm! Followed the recipe closely except for adding an extra half a banana. I also chopped 1/2 cup of walnuts into smallish pieces and pressed them gently into the top of the bread before baking (along with a bit of flax seed for fun). The result is a lovely dark-colored bread with lighter contrast from the nuts on top. Perfect! I myself used thick-cut oats in this recipe instead of quick-cooking oats and was happy with the texture it gave (a little chewier in places.) Thank you Kittencal :)
