Easy Banana Bread
Do you ever buy too many bananas? I know I do way too often. Some weeks, my family will have them gobbled down in no time at all. Then I have some weeks that I am needing a recipe that incorporates the left overs.
I quite often have to remind myself mid week to check the banana situation. If I buy too many, the hubby will often beg (yes…. he will beg, ha ha) for me to make his favorite Easy Homemade Banana Cream Pie. I LOVE banana bread. I love my house smelling wonderful when I have a loaf baking in the oven. As a child, I would visit my aunt and she would always have some sort of bread baking. I knew that when I grew up, I wanted to be like her, lol.
I am a coffee lover. How about you? If you are an evening coffee drinker like I am, maybe you can appreciate the evening coffee and dessert thing. Having a tasty homemade bread or muffin with my coffee is the best. It’s like comfort for me.
To make this Easy Banana Bread, you will need just a few pantry ingredients and your over ripe bananas. You can have your loaf baking in just a few minutes time.

I found this recipe and made it for my good friend for her birthday….She said it was gone in a day! I will be making this again soon. Thank you for such a easy recipe.
Doesnt need baking powder to rise???
I made this today for my family. It was really good! I don’t like bananas and I ate 2 pieces! I was wondering a couple of things…What size loaf pan did you use and did you put nuts in it? The pictures look like it has nuts in it.
I made this for the first time and it came out wonderful!!! I added chopped walnuts.
It says in the ingredients to use vanilla, but in the directions, there is no mention of when to add the vanilla. Can you provide an explanation and answer as to when to add the vanilla? Thank you.
