Inside each pocket, place bananas in a single layer. Sprinkle brown sugar mixture over bananas. Place in greased 13 x 9 inch baking dish. Pour in egg mixture. Let stand 5 minutes. Turn each slice over. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate at least 1 hour or overnight. Remove plastic wrap; sprinkle with nuts.
