I don't often travel into the world of baking. My sweet tooth went MIA a few years ago which is probably a good thing considering my complete lack of impulse control. It's also not really my area of expertise, too specific, too many things to measure out. But I found myself with two bananas that were rapidly deteriorating, and we all know what you do with old bananas! I looked into making banana bread, but happened across this recipe as I was going through my recipe folder. I wrote it on a piece of notebook paper when I was in college, so I'm not totally sure, but I think it comes from the Cupcake Cafe Cookbook. And considering I love everything that comes from that wonderful place, I decided to give it a shot. They were mighty tasty, but a tad on the dry side in my opinion. So any suggestions on how to moisten them up are welcome!
