Mom's Banana Bread

Banana Bread has quickly taken over my instagram feed as the most popular quarantine baking item. This is nothing new for me as I’ve been baking my mom’s banana bread for years and it is absolutely delicious! Jonathan always knows when I’m about to bake it because I will buy skim milk (which we never have in the fridge!)

If you’re looking for a gluten free, sugar free recipe, this is not the banana bread for you. BUT, if you’re looking for a delicious classic banana bread, you’ve come to the right place. So, here we go, let’s bake together!
