With all of these recipes up for carrot cake bread for Easter, I am still craving a classic carrot cake. But I decided I would make it more interesting by making it into a Paleo banana bread! The bananas pair perfectly with the carrot cake flavors and are a natural, moist sweetener. It is currently my go to breakfast and snack topped with some almond butter! A great way to sneak in both fruits and vegetables, and the walnuts help give it a great crunch!
