Ahh, Bananas...
the wonderful fruit that always gets devoured at my house by my kids as fast as I buy them.
That is, until we leave for a weekend getaway in the summer when it's hot and forget we had bananas in the pantry and we come home and they are all browned.
What does that mean...BANANA BREAD!!
What a yummy treat we were able to make up
when we came home and discovered this pleasant surprise this summer!
(this hardly ever happens and so it is something we savor very much)
I LOVE this helpful tip
that I learned over 7 years ago with using snack size applesauce containers/oil in making my sweet bread recipes!
It makes the moistest bread everytime!!

Yum! I love my recipe - but I think I'll have to try yours out. I always love your recipes. I love the applesauce idea in this bread recipe too. You are soooo healthy - I love it!
ReplyDeleteYummy! I love banana bread.. I also don't mind some brown ones in my smoothies...
ReplyDeleteI am a almost green banana girl.. I like them not the least bit brown.. so we have to eat them up fast.... which doesn't always happen.
PS: If I send you a copy of twilight, would you read it? My friend read it with her husband out loud every night.. These books only ADD to your romance... trust me!
I totally agree with you on that! We love when bananas go bad!
ReplyDeleteI am so glad that things are going well with Jade! I am really sorry to hear about what happened! You can tell that there is someone watching out for you and your family!
Looks like a good recipe, I'll have to give it a try. I bought some snack size applesauce just to give this a try....even though I have jars and jars and jars of canned applesauce from last year!
ReplyDeleteI love banana bread. My secret ingrediant is 1 1/2 tsp cinnamon. Makes it oh so good. I saw another blog that had chocolate banana bread. I sometimes buy my banana's on the virge of turning bad just make banana bread.
ReplyDeleteI love banana bread and your recipe sounds yummy! We're having an open house Sunday after church and I think that banana bread would be a great addition to the other food we'll have! I do have lots of applesauce so I'll try it with that! Thanks for the recipe!
