My best banana bread recipe - this banana bread is soft, sweet and tender. Perfect sliced for an afternoon snack or breakfast, banana bread is easy to make and a fun fall baking recipe. Spread warm banana bread with peanut butter or almond butter for a healthy fast breakfast. Banana bread can also be frozen for longer storage.
