Healthy Banana Bread

Who doesn't love Banana Bread. I was having a craving for some Sunday morning and thought it would go wonderful with a cup of coffee. Since I have made some before I thought this time I would try to make a healthier version of it. Well even though I had my doubts on if it would still taste great I was quickly proven wrong when to aroma started to fill my kitchen. Once it came out it was moist and full of flavor! If you have a craving for some now give the recipe below a shot! Happy Thursday!
