Wholemeal Banana Bread

October 2, 2014 by The Nutrition Guru and The Chef Leave a Comment

Often banana bread is laden with oil or butter, refined white flour and loads of sugar. Here we have created a healthier version that is just as, if not more delicious! We also have a gluten free nut free version.

This recipe freezes well.
