~Autumn Nesting…Let’s bake~

It’s Friday and I’m still nesting with Autumn in mind.Here’s what I decided on for my kitchen door.

But Friday makes me think of food. Oh heck, let’s just be honest, every day makes me think of food. But it’s officially Foodie Friday over at Gollum’s  where you’ll find a plethora of yummilicious-ness, so I thought I’d play at the foodie party this week…with Autumn in mind of course.

I grabbed this recipe from Starbucks the other day. (I posted a Starbucks Oatmeal Cookie recipe here.) They are trying to be a bit more healthy and even giving out some of their signature recipes. This one might be good for you to make for Saturday or Sunday morning breakfast and it’s a bit fallish.

It’s Banana Walnut Bread and as usual I changed it up a bit…

Here’s the Starbucks recipe: Banana Walnut Bread

(Click above for the website and printable recipe card)

This isn’t a copy-cat recipe. It’s from the Starbucks website!

Here’s what I switched up…the scrumptious topping.

Before you put it in the oven, mix the following by hand:

*4 Tablespoons Butter(very soft)

*1/4 Cup flour

*1/3 Cup TOASTED Walnuts

*1/2 Cup packed brown sugar

*1 Cup Oats

Crumble on top of  mix and bake…(If you want to be naughty add some butterscotch flavored chips in !)

This is a yumalicious Autumn treat with coffee in the morning! Happy Friday Peeps ~ And if you’re using the holiday weekend to do a bit of nesting for Fall, head over to Inspired Rooms for Melissa’s delicious Fall Nesting Party. There are ideas out the wazoo Peeps, you’re sure to come away ready for Autumn!
