4. Add flour to banana mixture. Stir in chocolate and nuts. Pour into prepared pans.
5. Bake 55-65 minutes. Let sit at least 30 minutes.
6. Once bread has cooled, cut into 1-inch cubes. (You may only need one and a half loaves to fill your dish.)
7. Spread out in a single layer on a baking sheet and toast in a preheated oven at 350 degrees for 8-10 minutes. Move to a 9x13 baking dish sprayed with baking spray.
