This wonderful sour cherry and walnut banana bread recipe comes from the trained chef - Gourmet Glow. Susie (aka Gourmet Glow) says of the recipe: this tastes better than regular banana bread. Oaty, nutty and moist with fruit with a little tang of sour cherry, I couldn’t think of a better partner to a nice cup of Redbush Tea.
