22 Must-Try Banana Bread Recipes

January 26, 2015

My mom made banana bread a lot when I was a kid. I loved when I came home from school to that familiar smell of fresh banana bread baking the oven. I couldn’t wait to have a warm slice topped with butter and watch it melt into the bread. Now when I bake banana bread, I’m reminded of my childhood and my mom’s baking.

I buy bananas almost every week and they are usually eaten up by my next shopping trip. If not, I’ll save them and make banana bread. My kids love banana bread with chocolate chips.

I haven’t even touched the tip of the iceberg with the amount of variations you can find for banana bread recipes. Check out the list of 22 must-try banana bread recipes listed below!
