Banana Nut Bread
Although the recipe for this Banana Nut Bread calls
for baking this cake in a rectangular pan, there's nothing
stopping you from using almost any shaped pan. You can use loaf pans
or even round cake pans to make a layer cake. Or, you can even
make
some muffins. I found these
giant muffin pans
that you can use to make some giant muffins.
