Banana Bread is a favorite at our house. Lately I’ve had to hide a few bananas just to be able to bake the Banana Bread. Seems like the boys go in spurts, first I have tons of leftovers bananas, then they are eating them up like crazy.
It’s funny how things in life usually come full circle. My middle son, Nick, had a very good friend, Tyler, growing up, our families enjoyed spending time together quite often. Then the boys got older and both of our families got busy and grew apart. Now the boys are playing baseball together on the High School team. This recipe is from Sherry, Tyler’s Mom.

I buy bananas at Aldi’s, they are .39 cents per pound, so most of the time the bag usually costs me less $1.

This is a lot like the banana bread I make, only mine has a little yogurt.
