This Copycat Starbucks Banana Nut Bread is going to save you some dollars! If you are a fan of banana bread, this recipe is filled with ripe bananas, walnuts, and pecans. Plus it is SUPER moist. Perfect with morning coffee or for an evening dessert. I am looking forward to having this on our Easter dinner menu. I like to have breads for everyone to enjoy and this bread turned out perfect for us to serve up.
Copycat Starbucks Banana Nut Bread
This copycat recipe includes nuts and a hint of cinnamon flavor… just like Starbucks! My son Damien and I will frequent Starbucks and always get excited when we see banana nut bread in the bakery case. We usually share a slice because the slices are HUGE and sharing keeps the costs down.
Now that I have made this CopyCat Starbucks Banana Bread at home we will be able to enjoy the same great bread at home and save $$’s. Our Starbucks addiction can get pricey. So any savings is a blessing.
This Copycat Starbucks Banana Nut Bread is so easy and so inexpensive. I had some left over bananas this week. The kids were silly and ate all the other fruit and left behind the bananas. So perfect for making this banana bread recipe. I made a quick trip to Kroger for my nuts and I had everything else on hand.

Absolutely delicious! I’ve used this recipe for a couple of years now. I usually have to make multiple batches because it gets gobbled up so quickly by family and friends. My kids love it as breakfast or snack!
HI Tanisha! Thanks much for the rating and review. I typically try to make a couple batches too! Banana bread is perfect for morning coffee or even a late evening snack.
Best banana bread ever
Hi Felipe! I am Super happy you enjoyed! I think it is a great recipe when needing to use overripe bananas. And, it’s perfect because it saves me from buying Starbucks, ha ha! Thanks much for the star rating and review.
This is absolutely gorgeous banana bread. The nuts give it extra pizzaz! It will be my go-to recipe from now on. Moist and delicious!
I make this in my bread machine on Express Bake 80 minutes, adjusting the bake time until a skewer comes out clean. Nuts stirred in before baking starts to stop them sinking. Liquids first then dry. Fantastic..
I followed everything, and baked it for how long I was told… and the inside wasnt even ready. I baked for 30 more minutes and nothing… wasted my time doing something that wasnt even correctly done.
Make a video please. I had hard time with mixing wet and dry ingredients before I added bananas and then I did not want to overdone with mixing.
I need some help. I really would like to make this work as everyone is so exited and thankful to you for that amazing recipe .
Made this recipe today and it is delicious. Super moist and tasty.
Tried your Strawberries and Cream Frappuccino and fell in love with it!! Now I have made your Banana Bread recipe and have to say I have never made a better bread! It filled my lkat pan right to the top and was gorgeous! I have six X-large banana muffins in the oven right now. I have made 5 loaves of the bread for our church’s Fall Bazaar and know they will be a BIG HIT! Love all your copycat recipes as they use everydat pantry items!
My mother in law LOVES Starbucks banana bread but $3+ a slice adds up quick. Iโd love to make her a loaf. Thank you for sharing this!
Excellent!!! Tried many banana breads in the past only to be disappointed but this one rocked. It does taste the same if not better than Starbucks. So easy too. Baked mine about 70 minutes at 325 tinfoil over top for the last 15 minutes. Thank you

This bread was amazing! My whole family raved about it! It was super moist and flavorful. In fact, I have a batch in the oven right now and it smells great already! This recipe is a keeper. Thank you!
just made this, and it turned out amazing! definitely a keeper, but i made it with less sugar, as i don’t like my sweets that sweet. :) can’t wait for breakfast tomorrow, i’ll be having it with pb&j and a cup of coffee.

Visiting from Best of the Weekend party. I love copycat recipes, I’ve never seen this in Starbucks here before, it looks really delicious though.
I love a good, nutty banana bread! And now I don’t even have to leave the apartment to get a yummy one. :) I hope you can stop on by and share this or any other recipe with us on Five Friday Finds!
Jen,
Love all of you Starbucks copycat recipes! They look amazing!! I found you from Treasure Box Tuesday! Pinning and thanks for sharing such sweet treats! Have a great week!

Jen, you are a girl after my own heart. Doesn’t insourcing save the most enormous amount of money! I almost can’t bear to spend money on Starbucks and cafรฉ treats these days. Once you realise how much you can save by making your own, it’s a no-brainer! I find that our own baking invariably tastes superior to the cafรฉ stuff to, don’t you? I’ll be trying this one for sure.
