The only Banana Bread recipe that you will need!
This is the best banana bread ever ever everrr! It’s super moist, very delicious, and the beautiful crust is just amazing!
As I already mentioned in some of my previous posts, I am taking an amazing Child Nutrition course. In this course we had optional weekly cooking assignments, (WEEK 4: Create a dish or baked product OF YOUR CHOICE (one that could be served by itself, or as part of a meal). The creation should be homemade and contain real, natural ingredients as much as possible.) – for me that meant baking something from scratch and making it as healthy as possible!
So I decided to bake with my 3 years old niece Sophia, a healthy banana bread made from whole wheat flour and no butter!
We baked our healthy banana bread loaf, it came out REALLY good, my niece LOVED it! And everybody else in my family did… There were no leftovers left for the next day! 😉
After posting her picture on the group’s Facebook page. Our lecturer Maya Adam shared it, and you guys asked for the recipe! So here it is for you to enjoy.
I hope that you enjoy this recipe. It is definitely one of my our family favourites and we bake it all the time. The recipe has been tested sooo many times, and it turns out perfect every single time!
