My dad, Tony, loved to cook and this is his famous, best banana bread recipe ever, using a very interesting but simple technique. It is tender, not too sweet, using very ripe bananas and dark brown sugar. This recipe is sacred to our family and I'm sharing it with you here. To replace the apple butter you can use, maple syrup or honey instead. FULL RECIPE BELOW
