For an even richer flavor, consider using browned butter instead of softened butter. Toast the macadamia nuts lightly before chopping to enhance their nutty flavor. If you don't have macadamia nuts, walnuts or pecans make excellent substitutes. To prevent the top from browning too quickly, tent the loaf with aluminum foil during the last 15-20 minutes of baking. This banana bread is even better the next day!
