This recipe for whole wheat banana bread is the only banana bread recipe that I use. I love it, my husband loves it and my kids love it. It’s more bread-like than cake-like and it’s perfect when spread with butter, peanut butter or nutella! We always eat the whole loaf before it even cools.
It’s another FUN FRIDAY! WOO! And today is extra fun because it’s Friday the 13th…wooooooo…spooky! And it’s my lovely husband’s birthday! In honor of him, I’m posting this recipe for banana bread. It’s his favorite banana bread ever and I think it’s probably the only banana bread that he eats. You can make this with or without a mixer. I know with the hot summer months the bananas go browner quicker so make sure to try this recipe soon!
