Very simple banana bread recipe
We all love bananas, right? They are a popular and highly nutritious fruit that can be found in almost every country in the world. They are the second most exported fruit worldwide after tomatoes, if they can really be classified as a fruit in the conventional style. There are hardly any calories in a banana to worry about and they taste delicious, but eating them on their own all the time can be a bit boring, even for the biggest banana fanatic.
