The Daring Bakers’ February 2012 host was – Lis! Lisa stepped in last minute and challenged us to create a quick bread we could call our own. She supplied us with a base recipe and shared some recipes she loves from various websites and encouraged us to build upon them and create new flavor profiles.
Okay, so I didn't really have the time to create anything new or "daring" this month. However, I did have a few overripe bananas, which meant it was time to bake banana bread. This recipe is simple and quick, and makes a delicious breakfast or snack.
