Pecan Banana Bread

Presenting a cinnamon spiced pecan banana bread ideal for your morning cup of coffee or tea!

Presenting a cinnamon spiced pecan banana bread ideal for your morning cup of coffee or tea! So this is the first time I made banana bread. Actually this is the first time I have made banana flavoured ANYTHING. I can’t lie I love bananas but not so much in bakes, especially if the banana flavour is extremely strong. So understandably I’ve always been too nervous to try making banana bread because hey lets be honest it just sounds very BANANA-RY. But guys I was very pleased with this outcome. I tried a banana loaf with my fav combo, cinnamon and pecans. I mean anything with pecans and cinnamon tastes amazing am I right, or am I right?

Don’t let the baking time turn you off it does take quite a while to bake but the prep is very simple so give it a go!

I did some deep cleaning today, I am exhausted. I didn’t actually know how many toys these boys had. They play with 1% of what they have. They are gonna be horrified to wake up tomorrow and see everything is gone. I gave it to our local learning centre and charity shops. My nightmare is that they put their toys out in front of the charity shop and they see when we walk by to go nursery in the morning. They would cause a SCENE on the spot. I mean I know they are kids but I’m nervous as heck and I am already planning what I would have to do if this was to happen. *Help*

Anywho for now I’m gonna just enjoy my cup of tea and a slice of this pecan banana goodness.
