Bisquick Banana Nut Bread with Granola Topping

I had a couple bananas that were well past their prime and decided to take advantage of the cooler mornings... This Bisquick Banana Nut Bread with Granola Topping is perfect any time of day, and especially nice with a good strong cup of coffee or tea:@) I had some granola to use up and thought it might add a little extra goodness to the top, and nuts are always welcome. Be sure to use all of the banana for the best flavor and moisture. This is one of those quick breads that's better after being covered in plastic wrap after cool and allowed to sit for a few hours. It's a nice recipe to try if you already have Bisquick on-hand.

Use Heart Healthy Bisquick, a Stevia type sweetener, fat free milk, sub some applesauce for the oil, etc.

I made half of the recipe, that made a very nice 4X8 loaf.
