I took this recipe from a regular banana bread recipe I've made before and swapped out the regular flour for buckwheat and the butter for olive oil and I liked it sooo much better. Ive also used the vegetable oil sugar coating on cakes before because I read somewhere that its the best way to get a crunch sugar coating so I wouldn't substitute the vegetable oil for any other type of fat I don't think it will get quite as crispy. the top of this banana bread is like a crunchy candy coating and the sliced almonds add a perfect amount of crunch without overpowering it like some other nuts in banana bread sometimes dol.
