Healthy Banana Bread
This scrumptious and nutritious banana bread is hearty and full of protein and good fats. Perfect for fall, this double recipe is made to share. It makes two loaves of bread or 24 muffins.
I personally do one loaf of bread and 12 muffins. I love a slice of banana bread with some tea or coffee, but I also like to have some muffins on hand to put in lunches or give to friends.
