Tired Of Making Banana Bread? Here Are 4 Other Sweet Treats To Whip Up In The Kitchen
Mary Berry come @ me!
If there’s one thing we’ve all seemed to learn from our time in quarantine thus far, it’s how to make a loaf of banana bread.
If you haven’t already, I’d suggest you head over to Roz Purcell’s Insta stat, or check out her website, the Natural Born Feeder – her delish chocolate chip and banana loaf was the talk of social media over the weekend (hence all the baking pics!)
But now, we’re looking to whip up something new. Banana bread has been ticked off the list and it’s time for us to flex these baking skills yet again with some of these delish recipes from our favourite, Irish master bakers.
