For those that have been following my blog for a while, you would know that I claim not to be able to bake to save my life. Well this banana bread post is breaking that myth and it’s giving me confidence to try my hands at baking more often. I really had fun with fingers crossed hoping it would work out and it did. It came out super delicious and moist which is what I guess it is supposed to be. Either way I really enjoyed it. You can add several things to this basic recipe like walnuts, currants, or even chocolate chips. Have fun with it.
