Chocolate banana bread with cashew nuts and lemon zest. Delicious and refreshing- probably my best one so far. There are many variations of banana bread online. Each one is a bit different. It's so easy cake to make and you will never get bored. I enjoy to change every time the recipe and so far so good. I am really happy with the result and Herman too (the little bastard couldn't resist and had a bit of a slice)🐭
