This recipe is for 9+ months
There are weeks that we go through so many bananas in our house, and then there are weeks that they just sit on the counter until they get too brown to eat and those are the weeks that we end up making this delicious, healthy, beautiful baby banana bread. The more ripe your bananas, the sweeter your loaf will be. I don't add any added sugar, the natural sweetness of the bananas are perfect as is. If you do like it a little sweeter, you can add maple syrup, date syrup or for older kids chocolate chips.
This Baby Banana Bread comes out very soft, moist and is excellent for little one's that are transitioning to solids or doing baby-led weaning. It can be served as a yummy treat, snack or even breakfast, along with some yogurt and fruit. Goes great in school
lunchboxes, or an easy toddler snack idea. I love how easy it is to make, all your ingredients mixed in one bowl, and baked into pure, yummy, perfection. Baby Banana Bread is just as yummy as all banana bread, but is texture friendly. It is very versatile, so if your kiddos are toddlers or a little older you can add in any toppings you like, chocolate chips, walnuts, etc. or you can top it off with your favorite nut and seed butter for some extra healthy fats. No matter what it is always a favorite. Hope you guys like it as much as we do!
