When I decided to start putting together this bread, it would not have been out of line to question my priorities. Let’s just say that there were a number of other things that need to be done.

I found myself with three overripe bananas who seemed to have sent a special express message to any fruit flies in the zip code. And I had just reorganized my kitchen area. I hate wasting food. These factors combined to form this banana bread. I could use the bananas, test the new setup and not… Continue reading Banana bread (split style)
