For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding chocolate chips or dried cranberries along with the walnuts. Be careful not to overmix the batter once you add the dry ingredients; overmixing can result in a tough bread. To ensure even baking, rotate the bread pans halfway through the baking time. This bread freezes well. Wrap tightly in plastic wrap and then aluminum foil before freezing.
