Funny story about Banana Bread – when my middle sister and I were kids, our stepdad was baking some banana nut bread. When we asked what it was, he replied (by accident), “Banana butt bread”. We giggled so much and still to this day will not let him forget it and I think about that every time I come across banana nut bread!

This definitely makes banana bread more desirable for the kiddos! Sounds really good, we always have ripe bananas that need to be used.
