kill ya early banana bread

i randomly found this recipe sweetly called "Nana's Banana Bread" i however have since renamed it "Kill ya early banana bread" because i'm pretty sure it will. this banana bread is amazing and more like banana cake then bread. the batter is better then any cookie dough i've ever tasted. seriously.

combine flour, baking soda, salt and baking powder in medium bowl. add flour mixture to butter mixture alternately with cream, ending with flour mixture. add walnuts to batter; mix well.
