The only reason I buy bananas: to make banana bread.  I have tried at least 50 different recipes but never really fell in love with one, until I tried this one that I found on The Food Network website recently.  After trying this recipe I just had to share it.  The result: a moist and flavourful loaf that is perfect for breakfast or snack time.  I also really like this recipe because it allows you to add chocolate and nuts or neither and the consistency of the bread is unchanged.  I’ve already made about 6 loaves with this recipe and it has been very consistent.  I have added chopped chocolate, hazelnuts, walnuts – every combination has been delicious.
