Banana bread has always been a favourite of mine.

Way back in the day, I used to get banana bread for breakfast! It was always a yummy breakfast, but not necessarily a healthy one.

So, I have made a Becomingness that is super yummy and really healthy too! I have also included macadamias in my version. I am a big fan of Macadamias and adding them to the banana bread makes it extra tasty.
