I have found this recipe to be very moist. It makes ordinary banana bread a special treat. Hint: Create layers. Pour 1/4 of the batter in the pan, add the pecans & brown sugar, then top with a little more batter, and more topping for a layered effect. You layer it in the pan, and it becomes a wonderful surprise to the ordinary banana bread we have all come to know. The photo is not layered... my oops. I forgot about it until I got to the pecans, but it sure didn't hurt the flavor.

- In a small cup mix together pecans and brown sugar along with cinnamon, if desired; set aside.
- Divide batter into fourths. Pour 1/4 of the batter into each of 2 prepared pans. Sprinkle 1/4 of pecans and brown sugar mixture over batter. Top with remaining batter and sprinkle on remaining pecans and sugar. Note: You have just layered batter, pecans and sugar twice.
