Banana Bread (With a Twist)
Description:
Grandma’s recipe, handed down over the years, with one minor alteration! 🍌 Stranded without a car, a toddler under foot, and halfway through the recipe, I realized I was out of the margarine the recipe called for… “Oh bother,” what to do? Well, there was always peanut butter in the house, and with nothing to lose at that point, I SUBSTITUTED! The end result was this delightful recipe.
