I love banana bread. That’s probably because it’s so easy to make. You just mash up bananas you have on hand, add a little flour and sugar, and then you can add anything you want from nuts to fruits, to candy. I love coming up with new combinations. It’s also a good way to sneak a little more fruit into your daily mealplan.
