Recipe Notes
For best flavor, make sure bananas are over ripe. For this recipe I use bananas that were turning black. The bananas are more soft and gives the bread it's best taste.
For those who like to bake their gifts, this makes a great gift. For a special touch, find a cute vintage tin to present your fresh baked delicious treat.
