I love making banana bread and finding ways involve the kids in the kitchen too. I don’t usually have wholegrain flour in the pantry so developed this recipe to use the leftover crumbs in the bottom of the Weetbix box. The kids love crushing the extras that we need too. They also like mashing the bananas.

This easy recipe is full of fibre, does not contain refined sugar and can be made lactose or gluten free.

It tastes great cold although we love it served warm or slightly toasted!
