Yum! This is a simple, good for you, and great tasting, and versatisle banana bread. I subbed 1/2 cup of the flour for quinoa flour, and subbed the flax seed & water mixture for one egg. My avocado was not ripe, but my bananas couldn't wait for them to get ripe, so instead, I used peanut butter, which worked well. Who doesn't like peanut butter & banana? The bread rose nicely and had great texture, too. I'll definately keep this recipe on hand! Thanks for posting, Lisa!

<p>I am exploring and developing my culinary skills. I enjoy creating things both edible and not. I haven't figured out if I prefer baking or cooking. I also enjoy gardening and have a vegetable garden so we can eat as local as possible. <br /><img src=http://i80.photobucket.com/albums/j166/ZaarNicksMom/PACsticker-Adopted.jpg alt= /></p>
