A super moist and delicious recipe for easy homemade banana bread that comes together in minutes.
Sometimes I wish my family didn't like bananas so much. I rarely have any around to make banana bread with because they get eaten so quickly. Sometimes I hide the bananas until they're overripe just so I can make banana bread.
Oh, darn, are these too ripe to eat? Well, I guess I’ll just have to make banana bread!
I’m usually all about short-cut recipes that use semi-prepared ingredients and mixes because I barely have enough time in the day to brush my teeth but Mama's banana bread recipe is so easy that even I have time to make it from scratch.
This isn't a fussy recipe where you have to alternate the wet and dry ingredients, sift anything, combine anything in separate bowls, etc. You just mix it all up, throw it in a pan and an hour later you’re eating homemade banana bread.
Boom. Done.
I've recently started adding chocolate chips to my banana bread on occasion and it is TA DIE FOR (I usually omit the nuts when I do). Add about a cup of chocolate chips and enjoy!
