Yummy Banana Bread - Update

Do you have some bananas that are past their prime?  In our house, we prefer a fairly green banana to it's brown-spotted ripened brothers.  So once they start to get spots on them, they are probably not going to be eaten by any of us.  This conundrum put me in search of an easy banana bread recipe.

And I found it.  Chances are you have all the ingredients you need already in your pantry.  This recipe is yummy and is easy enough to be kid's in the kitchen friendly.  It's moist and dense and beautifully banana-y. (Click on the picture to be taken to the recipe)

Some people like to eat their banana bread just like it is.  I, however, prefer to toast mine just a little and smear a some peanut butter on it.   That, my friends, is the way to eat banana bread.

So try this out and whip up a loaf (or two, they freeze well you know) for yourself.
