In a medium bowl combine eggs, bananas, sugar and oil. Add egg mixture all at once to flour mix. Stir just until moistened batter is lumpy. Fold in pecans. Pour in pan.

Streusel Nut topping --- In a small bowl combine 1/4 cup brown sugar and 3 TB all purpose flour. using a pastry blender, cut in 2 TB butter until mixture resemble coarse crumbs. Stir in 1/3 cup of chopped walnuts.

Put topping on before baking bread.
