This is the absolute Best Banana Bread Ever! There’s nothing that says home like the smell of fresh-baked bread. Really easy to make too.
When the bread in the oven is banana bread things are really kicked up a notch!
Though it is bread, this enjoyable treat is in many ways more like a cake.
The leavening agent in banana bread is usually baking soda instead of yeast. What’s more, unlike regular bread, banana bread is baked from a batter and not dough.
