Banana Bread is a moist and delectable bread loaded with rich banana flavor. It is commonly prepared with all-purpose flour but I replaced it with whole wheat flour and butter with olive oil, lastly sugar with honey (or maple syrup). So this means it has turned out to be a healthy version of Banana Bread. It is equally tasty as classic banana bread. Hope you enjoy the recipe and relish it with a cup of tea or coffee.
