Streusel Topped Banana Nut Bread image

I have made this many times for neighborhood gifts. Seems to be very well appreciated. I got this recipe from the Southern Living Christmas book. It also goes over very well at a breakfast get together. This is the most awesome banana bread I have ever tried because of the topping.....
