So I couldn’t stay away from the wheat for too long! I’ll just slip this recipe in before trying out some more wheat free options but you must know that this recipe is so worth it. 🙂
Brown bananas are now something I hope for (even plan for) at the end of every week. If we have brown bananas hanging around I know we will be having some kind of delicious treat, whether it be scrumptious banana bread muffins, banana nut breakfast cookies or my all time favourite buckwheat banana bread pancakes – whatever it is, its going to be good!
My boys absolutely LOVED this banana bread. We ate it for breakfast with some oranges, it was super delicious and made a nice change from regular banana bread. If you try it, don’t forget to leave me a comment below to let me know how it turned out!
