Hello! Did you miss us? We missed you. We’re truly sorry for sort of falling of the face of the earth for the month of February. And January. Moving and adjusting to a new space is our biggest problem, but we really are back. We mean it.

And the best way to kick off being back is to give you our recipe for Cinnamon Banana Bread. Cinnamon and Bananas? What? That sounds weird. Trust us though, it’s not. The cinnamon and banana pair perfectly together and create a mouthwateringly delicious take on Banana Bread. It tastes like getting a warm cinnamon hug from Paula Deen.

TYL Tip: This banana bread is perfect for making French Toast. It’s really mild and goes perfectly with the flavors of French Toast, which if you’re like us, you love cinnamon-y French Toast this is the most perfect combo!
