I love these mini banana loaves. They are easy to make and allow me to make different varieties in one go. They are also great in controlling portion sizes :) The recipe is very versatile. I have added mini chocolate chips to half of the batter. We can just as easily add chopped nuts, white chocolate chips, raisins or just leave it plain. I picked the original recipe from Bernard Clayton's "New Complete Book of Breads". It is indeed a bible for anyone who loves to bake and wants to know more about all kinds of breads. I have adapted his recipe for my taste and baking preferences.
