This is just to tease inspire you. A couple months ago when we shared our recipe for banana bread we asked what sort of extras you like to mix in. This weekend we made banana bread again and stirred in a half cup each of dark chocolate chips and chopped hazelnuts. And then we sprinkled some of each on the top before popping the pan into the oven. We had family visiting later on and they destroyed the loaf. So great as a morning coffee cake or even as an after-lunch dessert, since it's pretty sweet.
