This recipe is from Trisha Gagne of Cambridge, Ontario, who writes, “This banana bread was in a very old recipe book published by the women in a tiny church in Southern Ontario. It has a really unique flavor thanks to the honey. The maple syrup version is also delicious served with butter. This is the only banana bread I ever make, and every crumb vanishes quickly.” Trisha adds that she lines the pan with aluminum foil, which makes it super easy to clean up, and the loaf never sticks.
