So I am totally aware that there are a million banana bread recipes out there. But please, hear me out on this one. I’ve had a lot of banana bread in my time but I never really found a recipe that I wanted to make over again until this one.
I love to bake and I love my stand mixer. But when I see browning bananas on my counter I want a recipe that is simple to throw together. This recipe does not require any mixers or electric tools. All you need is a whisk, a couple bowls, some pantry and fridge staples and a strong arm.
Simply mix up your ingredients, throw them in the oven and walaa! A fabulous freshly, baked loaf of banana bread. The this loaf has a moist, tender crumb that is full of banana flavor. A definite crowd pleaser that feels special but is easy enough to make any day of the week. Your family will love this banana bread!

We absolutely love to enjoy banana bread with our coffee, and this is my current favourite breakfast treat!
What stunning photography! Looks so enticing that I want to try your recipe to see if it’s extra moist. Love toasted banana bread with a hot cup of tea. I can seriously have that any time of the day.
I cannot wait to make this! It sound amazing.
Totally lived up to both adjectives in the name….simple and delicious. Thank you!
