Jo’s Banana Nut Bread: Lower Added Sugar, More Banana

Whether it’s for the kids, or a treat for YOU, banana nut bread is a comforting and delicious snack with a cup of coffee, tea, or milk.

This recipe is heavy on banana and lighter on sugar. That’s a good thing.  Plus, it stores well and tastes just as good (or, better) the next day.  One less thing to plan!
