National Banana Bread Day
It’s National Banana Bread Day! Banana bread is a delicious baked good, which is classified as a “quick bread” or “tea cake.”
Bananas first arrived in the United States in the 1870s and it wasn’t long before they started to appear in dessert recipes as the star ingredient. The first cookbooks that mentioned banana bread were published during the Great Depression. Culinary historians believe that a resourceful housewife who did not want to throw away over-ripe bananas may have invented the original recipe.
Today there are many variations on this classic. To celebrate National Banana Bread Day, bake yourself a loaf with delicious add-ins like chocolate chips, berries, or nuts!
