For an even more intense banana flavor, use bananas that are very ripe, almost black. Buttermilk adds a wonderful tang and moisture to the bread. If you don't have buttermilk, you can make a substitute by adding 1 tablespoon of lemon juice or white vinegar to 1/2 cup of milk. Feel free to experiment with different nuts or add-ins. Chocolate chips, pecans, or even dried cranberries would be delicious. To prevent the top of the bread from browning too quickly, tent it with foil during the last 15-20 minutes of baking.
