Too Easy Banana Bread

Easy Banana Bread
This Banana Bread is so easy to make and so good!  It is a recipe of a mother of a very good friend of mine that was a woman ahead of her time, an excellent golfer, a world explorer and an awesome cook that actually was lucky enough to do some culinary training at Cordon Bleu.

I never managed to serve this Banana Bread completely cool, it always ends up being eaten while still warm.

As an image worth more than 1000 words, here was today's Banana Bread life cycle at home -  I went to the kitchen after some serviettes and when I came back all I manage to eat was that small piece on the left in the second photo! Best Compliment for a Cook ;-)
