Now is when you’ll add some chopped pistachios and chocolate chips. I used semi-sweet for my bread.

Yes, you can use your favorite nut variety. Pecans, almonds, macadamia nuts are also good options.

What Kind Of Pan Should I Use?

I like to use loaf pans to make my breads. There are a few different sizes to choose from. You can use a 4 cup, 6 cup, or 8 cup loaf pan. It’s nice to have one small and one large loaf pan for different recipes.

Tips for Serving Good Banana Bread

Make your bread the night before so you can slice the day of serving.

Store any leftovers in an airtight container either room temperature or chilled in refrigerator.
