Moist Nutty Banana Bread

Banana Bread - Adun

Sometimes you decide to be extra healthy and buy a ton of fruits. Sometimes, you buy too many bananas. But don’t be sad when they turn brown and soggy..

When life throws you soggy bananas, make a Moist Nutty Banana Bread. – Socrates 380 BC

Monday, I sat at work thinking of the bananas and dashed to the store to buy a loaf pan, my first ever one. Excited.

I tried this recipe twice. First time I used a hotter oven and it was a tad hard on the outside. These directions will help you get it perfect. Trust me!

  8. Sprinkle some pecans on the top and put it in the oven for exactly 65 minutes. You can watch a movie during this time. Don’t open the oven during this time.
