Growing up, there was never a lack of things to eat at my grandma's house. Grandma's Best Ever Banana Bread is my mother-in-law's famous recipe that's everything you want in a banana bread: moist, tender, delicious and slathered with a luscious cream cheese frosting. This is one of my favorite recipes for banana bread because it tastes exactly like the old school banana bread that my great grandmother use to make; super moist (without being soggy) on the inside, tons of banana flavor with that hint of cinnamon and vanilla and gorgeously golden on the outside. Chocolate Chip Banana Bread - this is an easy banana bread recipe that's full of dark, melty chocolate chips!

Banana bread makes a great housewarming or Christmas gift and it's perfect for the Southern tradition of taking something to a family when a baby's been born or a loved one has passed. This is definitely my best banana bread recipe. Once you try this one, you will make it all the time. My only problem with this bread is that I cannot leave it alone and could eat a loaf by myself. This recipe was an experiment and it turned out to be our best one using bananas ever.
