Every Healthy Banana Recipe You’ll Crave
Surprise surprise, this blog post round up is all about bananas, B-A-N-A-N-A-S.

If there is one ingredient that makes an appearance in the most recipes here on the blog, it’s the good old banana.

It’s one of my personal favorite fruits (close tie with apples) and I love how versatile it is. Plus it adds just the right amount of sweetness to any recipe so you don’t need to add much sugar with it!

Banana bread, banana muffins, banana cake – you name it. I’m always thinking of new recipes using the beloved staple to share with you. I’ve noticed I receive many requests for recipes that are indeed already here on the blog, so I am excited to share this round up with you guys. It will make your banana recipe cravings a lot easier to satisfy.

Before we begin, a few tips on baking with bananas:

• Bananas add the perfect sweetness to recipes, which allows you to add less of other sugars. Especially when they are overripe
• If your bananas aren’t ripe enough, pop them in the oven at 350 degrees F for abut 10 minutes
• Bananas are an easy way to sneak in fruit to your kid’s diet if they are a bit fussy and these recipes are all kid-friendly!
• If you cannot eat banana or have an allergy, you can easily sub pumpkin puree or unsweetened applesauce instead of banana
