Last year I started ordering my groceries online and made the mistake of ordering 6 bundles of bananas instead of just 6 individual bananas. If you have ever ordered online you have probably experience some version of this. However, with all of those bananas I was literally trying whatever recipe I could find to put them in. I ended up adding them to Pumpkin Bread to make Banana Pumpkin Bread.
I absolutely love pumpkin bread, but sometimes it can end up dry, so when I added the bananas into the recipe I realized the combo was amazing and kept the bread from becoming too dry. The pumpkin and banana flavors also pair really nicely together.
