Way back in 2011, I posted a recipe for banana bread. Since then, I’ve modified the recipe a bit to include another indulgence, dark chocolate or cacao nibs.

I’m reposting the updated recipe here and a quick show-and-tell video outlining how to put everything together and bake it. The video was first posted on Fine Cooking Magazine’s Instagram account a few months back.

Here it is again, in case you didn’t see it.

Honestly, I’ve asked myself if the world needs another banana bread recipe right now.

The answer that came to me, without hesitation, was YES since banana bread falls into one of those feel-good, comfort food categories…and we still need a lot more of that right now, don’t you think?

Email me for this recipe.

Questions? I’m always here with answers.

Since the Fine Cooking website was shut down, you can email me@chefdianaandrews.com for the recipe. Also, consider joining the Fine Cooking Community group on Facebook!
