I love trying new recipes, and the best recipes come from friends. This Banana Bread recipe came from a dear friend Hillary (2021 update- she is now my daughter-in-law!) and her mama, Carol. It's moist and delicious!

| Ready for the oven. Banana Bread is a great way to use those no-longer-perfect bananas. I like to make it ahead and keep a loaf or two in the freezer. Banana bread is a great hostess gift, or perfect to add in with that meal delivery of your favorite Minnesota hotdish you are making for that family friend that needs a little hug. |
