It has been a while since I’ve shared a banana bread recipe with you guys. That does not mean that I haven’t make them anymore but it’s just that I have been using some recipes over and over again. Some of my favorites to make are: green tea banana bread, chocolate marbled banana bread, cinnamon swirl banana bread, blueberry banana bread and of course chocolate chip banana bread. Recently, I decided to try a new banana bread recipe that uses macadamia nuts. Macadamia nut is one of my favorite nuts. I like its taste as well its health benefits. Macadamia nuts are quite expensive so this banana bread with macadamia nuts is a real treat to have. Enjoy!
