Recipe View Let the loaf cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely. (10 minutes)

For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a teaspoon of vanilla extract or a pinch of cinnamon to the batter.
If you don't have walnuts or pecans, other nuts like almonds or macadamia nuts would also work well.
To prevent the top of the loaf from browning too quickly, tent it with aluminum foil during the last 15-20 minutes of baking.
This loaf is best stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, or in the refrigerator for up to a week.
