Mom's Banana Bread Recipe!
This is one of my favourite recipes from my childhood. I really like mom's recipe because it's moist. She co-stars in the recipe video!
It's not the typical recipe I post on my website. Normally my recipes are high in protein and low in sugar. But, if you are following my Fat Loss Fast System, this recipe would be great for your daily discretionary calories.
p.s. I made a "healthy" version of banana bread...you can click here for that recipe (but mom's is better!)

My Way of Eating
I love food. Especially banana bread!
As an intermittent faster, I skip breakfast, and enjoy eating in the afternoon and evening. This works well for me because I don't like eating breakfast in the morning (it makes me feel nauseous), and I'm more relaxed at night (so I digest better). I also enjoy eating carbs!
