This week I am happy to share the best banana bread that we have ever tried and make in our kitchen. Its an original recipe from my sweet friend and neighbor Pam, and we added some tropical flavor with the ginger, coconut sugar and cacao vibes. We also have a gluten free option with bread fruit flour, there is not more tropical than that!
You have to give it a try!
