I’m looking out the window to a marble gray sky that seems like at any moment it will burst into tears. As little drops begin to form on the window I find comfort in a slice of the Best Ever Banana Bread because honestly, it just makes life better.
I have to admit, one of my favorite things about Banana bread is not eating, but smelling the sweet scent of it baking in the oven. It really is the best thing in the world. There are very few aromas that are truly irresistible, like freshly baked bread or warm chocolate chip cookies, and Banana Bread even more so.
This bread is great because it is so moist because of the super ripe bananas. They also give this bread a great sweetness that is so natural and not ‘sugary’. This is great because you really can eat a whole lot of it for breakfast and not feel like you’re eating cake! There’s also a whole teaspoon of salt in this recipe, which somehow also makes it slightly savory. It is perfect when smeared with slightly salted butter.
Even though I really enjoy the soft crunch of texture that the walnuts give to this bread, feel free to use pecans or even remove the nuts if you have allergies. You could replace the nuts with raisins or other dried fruit, or even throw in some dark chocolate or peanut butter chips! Talk about a delicious loaf of (banana) bread!
Another reason why I call this recipe the Best Ever Banana Bread is because of how easy it is to make. Throw all the ingredients into a mixer and, bam! Ready to bake and filling your house with the glorious scent of homemade yumminess.
