Quick Whole Grain Banana Bread

INGREDIENTS AND DIRECTIONS:

This recipe uses a lot of whole grains, but it will turn out excellently if you use all-purpose flour in place of any or all of the whole grains. Also, any of the whole grains are interchangeable with any of the other whole grains in the recipe.

1 c. sugar
2 eggs, slightly beaten
1 c. mashed banana (3 med.)

1/4 c. oat bran
1/4 c. wheat bran
1/4 c. wheat germ
1/3 c. hot water
1/2 c. chopped walnuts
