I like to mix Whole Wheat flour with white flour. Add an extra egg if you are making a big loaf with 3 cups flour. Add interesting textures like Toasted Flaxseed, or sunflower seeds. For sweetener, add half honey/ half sugar. I add vanilla which seems to enhance the flavor of the bananas. Every time, it turns out different when I make it. For example, add half cup sweetened shredded coconut or crushed pineapple (drained) to the mix. Note: If you have friends or family with nut allergies, avoid all the nuts, for example, if you are taking your banana bread to a reception or pot-luck luncheon, etc. where there might be people with nut allergies. Often I add sour cream (quarter cup to one half cup), if I don't have any milk. It is hard to ruin banana bread...
