Banana Bread Bake Off

A Banana Bread Bake-Off!!!

My kids love banana bread.

With my little girl being picky - this is always a way to get some calories in her.

I grew up on banana bread and we have all turned out rather thin -

so I just suggest everything in moderation right?

I found a banana bread recipe years ago and have stuck with it.

I wanted to venture out see if it really was better than other recipes.

So, I made four loaves with four different recipes in one afternoon.

With a variety of recipe ingredients from oil to butter, brown sugar to white sugar, etc.

I think I found a winner!

It was also won by all four mouth that tasted it.
