Got ripe bananas? Really ripe bananas!
They make best banana bread. I always buy extra bananas and let them get very ripe to create banana bread or muffins.
Todays recipe is a moist banana bread with a cinnamon crust top.
You can substitute the flour with gluten-free flour.
It is a perfect recipe for a kids snack, breakfast or even a yummy dessert. When I make it, I drizzle honey on top to give it a delicious flavor.
To create the most flavor is to use the ripest bananas. Bananas are the sweetest when they are very ripe.
