Notes
- Whole Wheat Flour Substitution: If desired, you can use all-purpose flour in place of whole wheat for a lighter texture.
- Nut Choices: Feel free to use walnuts, pecans, or your favorite nut, or omit them entirely if you prefer a nut-free bread.
- Ripe Bananas: The riper the bananas, the sweeter and more flavorful your bread will be.
- Storage: This bread stores well in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 4 days, or it can be frozen for longer storage.
- Add-Ins: Consider adding chocolate chips, dried fruit, or a sprinkle of cinnamon for additional flavor.
