*I
like to use a few small pans of different shapes and sizes instead of one large
bread sized pan. It’s more fun and you can freeze some for later. I used 4-5
small tins and baking dishes of different shapes. It averaged out to be 5
dishes. Banana bread thaws out nicely, but just be sure to wrap it good so
there isn’t freezer burn. And don't forget to label it!
Frosting:
Blend 8 oz. softened Organic Cream Cheese with 1 t. Organic Vanilla and 1 C. Organic
Powdered Sugar**. Spread on top of loaves after they have cooled completely.
This is my husband’s absolute favorite cake: “Banana nut bread with cream
cheese frosting”.
**
I made my own powdered sugar by blending 2 C. Organic Evaporated Cane Juice ‘til
powdered and then adding ½ C. Tapioca Flour and blending a little more. It turned
out pretty good. A lot less expensive than buying it outright.
