Combine white flour, buttermilk powder, whole wheat pastry flour, oat bran, brown sugar, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, and oats together in a large bowl.  Combine eggs, water, oil, applesauce, vanilla, and bananas in a medium bowl (if using honey, add it with these wet ingredients).

Fold in 1/2 cup walnuts.  Spoon batter into the prepared pan.  Sprinkle top with 1/4 cup walnuts. Bake for 50-60 minutes, until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Cool on a wire rack in the pan for 15 minutes. Remove from pan and cool completely.
