A classic... Banana Bread

This banana bread....
Classic.
Simple.
Delicious.
I found the perfect recipe.  
On Pinterest.  
But, if someone can kindly point me to the original recipe- I would like to credit the creator.


Banana bread is truly one of my all time favorites...
I eat mine warm from the oven.
For breakfast the next day...
And my favorite way...
It is kinda sinful... 
but very delicious...
With cream cheese or butter on top.


I have a bunch of frozen over ripe bananas in my freezer right now.
In fact, I think I buy bananas just so they can go bad on me and I have an excuse to make more bread.
Smart huh?


Here it is..
My all time favorite recipe...
And the best part- no oil in the recipe.
The moistness comes from buttermilk.
All good things come from buttermilk- trust me....

Have a great week everyone!
