I love bananas so much. They're the perfect breakfast food, the perfect snack food, and in a pinch, they can fill you up if you can't actually have a real meal. But as delicious as bananas are on their own, their consistency and natural sweetness lend a wonderful flavor to baking and I can't get enough of banana baking recipes!
Of course, my favorite recipe is this banana split cookies recipe that I made myself. But I haven't cornered the market on banana baking recipes - well, not yet, anyway! Lord knows that I am trying! ha ha!
I was perusing Pinterest the other day and found these 5 amazing banana baking recipes that I can't wait to try! Of course I had to share them all with you guys too!
