I buy banana’s A LOT. They’re full of all the good vitamins and potassium and most importantly I don’t have to do anything to prepare them for kids snacks, they’re just there…waiting to be eaten. I love that fruit is an easy snack. Unfortunately, many bananas in my house go uneaten so we have lots of browning bananas hanging around the kitchen. This is where delicious banana bread comes in.
I’m not a super great baker, so when I bake it has to be straight up the easiest recipe in the world and this one IS! It’s easy and the most delicious banana you’ll make.
A note about bananas 🍌
I use 4 bananas when making the banana bread, it makes it really moist but also gets rid of an extra banana. However, if you’re going to add chocolate chips, I suggest only using 3 bananas.
