Yesterday, I posted on Instagram that the best banana bread begins with some of the worst bananas.  Thank goodness that’s true because these bananas were well past their prime.  You can see their sadness on that link.

Make Your Own Buttermilk for Recipes!

I never have buttermilk for cooking when it’s called for, do you?  If you’re like me and don’t have it, never fear!  I use this quick and easy recipe for making a great buttermilk substitute that works perfectly in this recipe.

That’s EGGsactly what I do!

You’d be surprised how many people had something to say about this crazy thing I do with my eggs in their carton.  Check out this Facebook post to see what I do and find out how many others are the same!

I always mash my bananas with a potato masher.  It makes this job as easy as … banana bread!

  1. I can smell the wonderful aroma coming from your banana bread in the oven…. Yumm! The recipe is so similar to the one I use except for the buttermilk. You are right about never having buttermilk around when a recipe calls for it. Gotta try your recipe soon… and banana bread doesn’t last in my house. Thanks.
