We all love classic banana bread, but on days when we’re craving a little something extra, we turn to this trusty banana nut bread recipe. Here, toasted walnuts and a dash of cinnamon join forces for a (slightly) fancier loaf that still celebrates the banana first and foremost. Here’s how to make it the best it can be:
Walnuts are the nut of choice in a banana bread, and we’re showcasing them two ways: studded throughout the loaf and sprinkled over the top. While it’s wise to use untoasted nuts for the topping (they will toast while the bread is baking), it’s absolutely imperative that the nuts that are folded into the batter be toasted first. If this feels like a silly extra step, trust us—it’s not. Toasting the walnuts brings out their natural oils, enhancing their inherently nutty flavor and making them crunchier. On the other hand, untoasted walnuts will soften considerably as they bake in the batter and may also taste tannic and bitter. Please don’t skip this step.
We used our best-ever banana bread recipe as a base to build this banana nut version for multiple reasons, but mainly because it’s perfectly moist with a tender crumb. Just like in our original recipe, we suggest a few key steps to ensure your bread is that ideal loaf texture: Use extra-ripe bananas, mash them well, and back up your flavors. Along with our dark brown sugar and vanilla, we added just a touch of cinnamon to give a warming spice note to our walnut bread.

Walnuts are our ideal choice for banana bread, but you can switch it up if they’re not your thing. Switch them out for your choice of toasted nuts, or get totally creative with your mix-ins! Try our chocolate chip banana bread for a chocolate and nut pairing, or add in your desired spices or mix-ins of choice to this recipe.
This banana bread will keep in an airtight container at room temperature for 3 to 4 days. You can also freeze the whole loaf if you want: Wait for it to cool, wrap it in plastic wrap and foil, then store in the freeze for up to 3 months.
