Banana Bread


It's being too hot outside. These are the days of cold fruit smoothies. When we talk about fruit, not every fruit is kids favorite except one and that is banana. This fruit seems to be favorite fruit for most of the family members. Lots of people think banana can only provide us fat. Well, I will say there are more other benefits of banana which should be considered first. Some of them are listed below-


  1. Reduces depression.
  2. Regulate the Bowel system.
  3. Reduce blood pressure and heart of disease.
  4. Help our bones grow stronger.
  5. Help individuals to quit smoking.
  6. Help prevent anemia.
  7. Provide us with energy.
  8. Reduce menstrual pain.
  9. Power our brain.
  10. Help prevent ulcers.
There are many varieties of ways in which we can include banana to our diet everyday. Fruit Custard, Banana Smoothie, Malpua, Banana Bread, etc. Banana bread tempt me most, and I love it most. Last time I made it, it didn't came out well. It tasted too good, but it was very dense. I have a problem, if food doesn't look good, I cannot eat it. So, it was very difficult for me to consume it. So, this time I was much careful while making this bread. And I am real happy, when it came out so good. And believe me, it tastes as wonderful as it looks.

Here, I want to give my special thanks to a friend, Anshie Dhar, who also runs a blog Spiceroots, and a brilliant cook. Thanks Anshie, for your Support.
