Basic Banana Bread
Just about everyone loves banana bread. It is a classic for a very good reason. And I love that there are soooo many ways that you can make it. Add in some nuts, zucchini or carrot or load it up with dates. You only need to see how many banana bread recipes I already have on the blog! It’s always a winner. But sometimes a Basic Banana Bread is required and this is a wonderful recipe to fill that space.
It’s super simple to make yet packed full of deliciousness. It’s both egg and dairy free which makes it good for those with allergies to either. There are no ‘bits’ for the kids to complain about. But most importantly, it’s just a really tasty basic banana bread!
The brown sugar gives a slight caramel flavour which I love when there isn’t the sweetness from dates. But you can reduce the amount of sugar in the recipe without it impacting too much. I will also use a half and half mixture of plain and wholemeal flour as well, just to give a little more substance.
Eat it warm, fresh from the oven or toasted for breakfast the next day. It’s perfect in lunchboxes or with a cuppa for morning or afternoon tea. Or have a generous slice, smeared with good butter, just because you feel like it!
