I haven’t visited Starbucks for a while now. I used to go there every day for my favourite coffee and banana bread. But since the pandemic and I started working at home, I have not gone out to do my usual thing. I super miss their banana bread. It’s one of their best assets. This is a moist and decadent banana loaf. Now, I am craving big time! Thank goodness for this copycat recipe, I can make my favourite banana bread any time and at the comfort of my home! You can omit the walnuts if desired, but I highly suggest don’t as they add so much flavour to this banana bread. If desired, you can substitute the walnuts with chocolate chips, and it’s going to be as amazing!
