The Nourished Bump’s take on the Banana Bread – Perfect for the whole family
This is a super easy and delicious banana bread that is perfect for the whole family. My toddler, mother- in law and friends are all impressed by this nourishing crowd-pleaser. All the ingredients should also be already in your pantry or fridge – and finally something to do with those over-ripe bananas left in the fruit bowl withering away to nothing.
Now I hate recipe blogs where you have to scroll down what seems like hundreds of pages just to get to the actual recipe! On my website that will not be the case – we will be cutting straight to the good stuff so you can get to baking faster.

- In a bowl, mash/ blend the bananas until smooth
- Add butter and honey and mix until combined (approx. 20 seconds)
