Honey Banana Bread

Submitted by Meghan at Food.com

"The husband loved this for breakfast, and I thought it was a great after-dinner snack. A couple of times I even topped it with a little light whipped cream. I know, there goes the health factor, but it was good! Inspired by bread & honey: http://bread-and-honey.blogspot.com/2008/08/banana-bread-low-fat-and-vegan-shh.html"
