Chunky Apple Banana Bread

Banana Bread?

OK, I know what your thinking “Why does a Realtor have a Apple Banana Bread recipe on her website?”

Well, over the years I have found that when selling a home, it is always a good idea to fill the air with the wonderful aroma of fresh backed goodies. Whether it’s freshly baked Apple Banana Bread or Chocolate Chip Cookies, etc…  when a buyer walks into your home for the first time and smells the freshly baked goods in the air, they will feel right at home and spend more time seeing themselves in the home your selling. Additionally, this recipe is very easy and healthy to make. After the buyers leave and you return back home you can have a wonderful healthy treat to enjoy as well.

  • This Chunky Apple Banana bread is one of my absolute favorite things to make (and eat).
  • It’s just so easy and delicious. In fact, I pretty much have a batch of chunky apple banana bread or muffins on hand at all times for a quick snack.
  • This chunky apple banana protein bread is just the right amount of sweet and so moist and tasty! It packs a good amount of protein and healthy carbs to keep you full and energized throughout the day.
  • Keep in mind that this bread is super dense and won’t rise at all, so you could double the recipe if you prefer larger bread slices.
