Tropical Banana Bread

• 
  
• I've had some bananas I needed to use up so it got me thinking of banana nut bread. I have a blog I follow so I thought I would try one of her banana nut bread recipe, my taste buds have been really weird for the past month so not sure if it is me or the recipe, my husband thought it was good. But anyhow it got me thinking about banana nut bread, then I seen the macadamia nuts I had left over and then my imagination took off and that is where this bread came from. Let me know if you try it and what you think. 
• I think these would make great muffins.
