Best Banana Bread … Seriously

I don’t know about you, but I always seem to end up with those last few bananas that are ripening faster than we can eat them. This is the PERFECT answer. Honestly, I keep experimenting with banana bread recipes and, in using ingredients I had on hand, came up with a recipe I may stick with forever. It is that good.

This banana bread is moist, flavorful, and delicious enough for any time of day. The aroma of a sweet banana bread baking early in the morning will definitely get your mouth watering. It’s a perfect side in the afternoon with a little coffee or tea, as an after lunch snack, or even AS your lunch. 😉 If you’re craving a somewhat healthy yet kind of sweet snack after dinner, here you go.

Super easy to make, even on rushed days with little kids. Waiting for it to come out of the oven is the longest (and hardest) part!
