My girls hate taking sandwiches to school. Not a fan. But they love banana bread. It’s slightly savoury, and slightly sweet. Taking it to school though, got old real fast. So in an attempt to make it more portable, and more interesting, I decided to take my good old banana bread recipe, and throw it into some muffin tins. Presto! We had a hit on our hands.

We always have a few spare bananas lying around. Sydney loves them. Hunny on the other hand likes bananas in recipes, but on their own, they make her tummy feel a little sick. So I buy a big bunch, Syd eats a few, and the rest are left to go spotty. Then, and only then, do we bake with them.
