Christmas Banana Bread

We're low on funds this year because we bought the house so for Christmas I decided to bake chocolate chip banana bread to give to our families. My mom found me decorative mini loaf pans:


... and I baked the first batch today. For these 8 loaves I needed to make the standard recipe four times. It was a lot of work, but the results should be worth it. Later today, once they're cool, I'll wrap them in red and green cling wrap.

And just for fun, here's a picture of our cat sleeping between the pillows on our bed. That seems to be his new favorite spot to catch a quick nap.

  1. Merry Christmas, Little S.! Dusty looks so cute. Hope the banana bread is tasty--I'm sure it will be. Be watching the mail next week for a combination Christmas/birthday gift. Okay, hope you and your hubby enjoy the holidays. Talk to you soon.

  2. And a Merry Christmas to you, too! You must be at home with the folks if you can actually see the photos. :)

    Yay! I'll be looking forward to it. Hope you have a great holiday!

  3. Hee hee, cute cat. Our Billy Lee sleeps with her head ON the pillow, like a person would. And pushes Jac or me off the pillow in the process.

    I love banana bread! Banana prices have finally come down so I might have to bake some. Or banana muffins.

  4. tfp - I finally tried a piece of the banana bread at my mom's house yesterday and it was quite yummy. I think I might use the same recipe to make muffins next time.
