My friend, Lily shared her banana bread recipe with me- it is moist, very easy to make, full of bananas and full of flavor! My favorite banana bread.
We tend to remember important milestones that have taken place throughout our lives. Some of my most prominent memories include: my first visit to Poland, my 8th-grade graduation, and the birth of my youngest cousin. I also remember a five-year-old me standing with a crowd of other 5-year olds as one of our neighbors handed out homemade animal-shaped cookies. And the taste of a pudding-like dish a classmate brought to our 4th grade U.N. Day lunch. And the soft, perfect banana bread my friend, Lily, baked for a school bake sale in 2012. To conclude, I remember food: good eating are marked clearly on my memory timeline.
I remembered Lily’s banana bread so much so, that when I saw it on a bake sale table this year, I had to buy a good portion of it. The taste I had envisioned a few years back was well exceeded. So I invited her over to make a video with me and share the banana bread recipe, to which she very kindly agreed.
Lily’s banana bread recipe is moist, resembling a soft, slightly dense cake with a beautiful brown coating. It has the perfect amount of sugar and bursts with flavors of banana. The recipe makes two loaves, so we decided to play around with one of them by adding chocolate chips, walnuts, and cinnamon.
It was difficult to choose which loaf we preferred from the two. I have already repeated this recipe in the past week- so thank you, Lily, for sharing this delicious banana bread recipe with me! So if you’re looking for a moist banana bread, a banana bread that will simply crumble in your hands, this is the one for you.
