Mama's Banana Bread
The holidays weren't complete without Mama's Banana Bread and Recipe #382815. I've tried to keep the tradition going...even sending the breads up North to family. Mama's Banana Bread is wonderful for breakfast (try it toasted) with sweet cream butter, midday with coffee, or a late night snack. It's so easy to make, don't wait for the holidays....have it for the family all year long!!
