Banana Bread


Over the years, I have been trying to recreate the banana bread that I love to eat back home. My mother buys them at the weekly night market and we'd finish it a loaf in one sitting! Although it is called bread, to me it eats like a cake more than bread.  This recipe is nearest to what I remember. The difference perhaps is due different type of banana available here. Anyway, I am more than happy to use this as my go-to recipe going forward.
