I'd still be willing to try this if there is not a substitute but you seem to know a lot about baking/cooking so I figured I would ask.

I never add walnuts to my banana bread because none of my siblings are massive fans of nuts in banana bread and they can't bring nuts to school either. In the recipe that I use, I omit the nuts and chocolate chips and use cacao nibs instead.

You could subsitute walnuts for cacao nibs (what I use instead of chocolate chips) or raisins. You can also use a different nut if you want but in my opinion, it's not necessary.
