Banana bread has been one of my favorite breakfasts and even snack. You can make it and let is stay in the fridge and grab it when you want to eat one. When I want to make a Banana Bread, I prefer to buy good bananas three or four days earlier and wait for it to be ready instead of buying ripe bananas.
Aside from Laura in the Kitchen, I have another favorite YouTube channel – Joy of Baking and this is where I got this Banana Bread recipe. Thanks to Ms. Stephanie Jaworski!

Serve with the drink of your choice. I love to serve mine with coffee and spread some butter and drizzle with pancake syrup.
I love the crunchy side on the edges of this bread but they’re likely to be gone in seconds. 😀
