BANANA-APRICOT WALNUT BREAD
Served at the SeaScape Manor Bed and Breakfast in Highlands, New Jersey, this is banana bread with a twist -- apricots! I love banana breads, and am always on the lookout for something new, so when I spotted this I knew it was worthy of sharing. I haven't tried it yet, but will soon.
