I love making banana bread and my husband enjoys it as well. This is a recipe that my mom has made since I was young. It was the nice go to recipe when the bananas were really ripe. When I was a kid the bread was usually gone after being out of the oven for 10 minutes. It is the best when it is warm. I hope you enjoy this recipe as much as I do.
