BANANA BREAD
I like to double the recipe and freeze several. Mini loaf pans are the perfect size if you're bringing a hostess gift.
We prefer the mini semi sweet chocolate morsels in this dessert bread. The addition of cocoa powder gives this chocolate banana bread a nice, rich chocolate flavor. You can add nuts if your family likes them.
If chocolate's not your thing, I have a terrific recipe for a quick, plain, simple banana bread.
This banana bread can be sliced and then freeze and seal using my Food Saver Vacuum Sealing machine for quick breakfast or impromptu snack. They're easy to defrost in the microwave in a pinch.
Another family breakfast bread favorite is this easy Simple Banana Bread or Monkey Bread made with Maple Syrup!
