Looking for the perfect banana bread recipe? This bread is moist and delicious with loads of banana flavor! The thick, sweet batter has just a hint of cinnamon that complements the finished bread perfectly. You can add chopped pecans, walnuts or peanuts if you like. Sometimes I add chocolate chips. Sometimes I add peanut butter chips. Tonight I felt like adding chocolate AND peanut butter chips. It's a faultless base recipe that allows lots of room for creativity. Best of all? You can enjoy it plain with a glass of milk. Try spreading on a little peanut butter if you're feeling extra DEVILISH!
