Banana Bread*

By srumbel

I grew up eating my sister’s baked goods. One of Carolyn’s specialties was (is) her Banana Bread Recipe. She is 7 years older than me, so she would get home from school earlier, and would always be baking something. It was pure heaven. I have no idea where she got this recipe from, but it’s good. It’s a nice way to use up the ripe bananas too.

This is perfect for rushed mornings, or on the go. It doesn’t need anything except a glass of milk, or cup of tea. Make it as soon as possible!
