This is my go-to recipe for an easy and delicious homemade banana bread, that I've made healthier by opting for a few simple ingredient choices that are both nutritious and nourishing.

With a super moist texture and an irresistible flavour, this is a classic go-to recipe of mine when I'm in the mood to bake something easy and comforting that my family and friends all love. It's great because you can enjoy this any time of the day - whether as a quick nourishing breakfast, a mid-day snack, or as a healthy dessert. And as a bonus - it's also a perfect way to use up those overripe bananas just sitting on your kitchen counter!
