Anyone who has ever worked with me knows my banana bread. It's my 'go to' breakfast for my family, well, because I always seem to have a ton of overly ripe bananas. (Who doesn't?!)
Every neighbor I have ever had has had it. It has gone to friends for birthdays and for no reason at all. It has gone across the country for the holidays.
It started with Betty Crocker's recipe and has morphed over the years. I moved to Colorado over 9 years ago and had to adjust it slightly for high-altitude. So, if you're at sea level, you may have to add a little less flour and little more milk and adjust your baking time by 10 minutes or so.
It's great warm out of the oven with a little butter or as a cold snack with tea in the afternoon.
Hope you enjoy it as much as my friends and family do.
