Mom's Banana Bread

The Christmas after I got engaged to my wonderful hubby...

My incredible mother

made me a recipe book

of recipes we grew up on!

And inside there are sometimes photos 

to go with the memories created by each recipe!

A HUGE gift!

Thanks Mom!!

One of my faves from this book

is my Mom's Banana Bread,

so I thought I'd put the recipe up here!

(Update: I've adapted the recipe

and made up my own Gluten Free, 

Dairy Free, Egg Free muffin version of this bread too)
