This Banana Walnut Cake or some may call it Bread, is really very easy to whip up if you have a bunch of overripe bananas that you can’t finish. It’ll be great if you also have some walnuts lying around the house. The texture of this cake is super moist and together with it’s crispy crust, makes it simply irresistible to stop at only one slice.
