Banana Bread

I had tasted a lot of Banana bread. Some of them are dry, some of them are too moist, some are very nutty. So, after several experiments on Banana bread recipes. I can say that, the Food Network Banana Bread recipe is the right one for me. The banana flavor is just right,not too overpowering, it's super moist,not too sweet and so easy to make. My husband like it that he can eat half a loaf after i just finished baking. This will make some seriously wonderful Banana Bread French Toast.
