Notes

Feel free to substitute butter with oil and sugars with natural sweeteners like honey or maple syrup for healthier options. For added flavor, consider mixing in chocolate chips or chopped nuts. If you want to make muffins instead of banana bread, bake at 375°F for 20-25 minutes. Let the bread cool completely before slicing to prevent crumbling. Enjoy with coffee or tea for a perfect pairing!
