John Paul was out of town on business stuff last week, and I wanted to welcome him home on Tuesday with a baked good. We had some extra bananas from my smoothies that were getting spotty, and I ran across Smitten Kitchen's recipe for banana bread just in the nick of time. I was intrigued by the spices (cinnamon, nutmeg, and ground cloves), and loved that it only required one bowl to mix everything in! I did add about 1 c. chocolate chips because I like my banana bread to be dessert-like, but kept everything else true to her vision.
John Paul was happy. I was happy. The house smelled good. All in all, this recipe is a keeper!
