One thought on “Banana Cornbread

  1. Thanks for this receipe. I love bananas and I love cornbread, so this is the one receipe I found on the internet. It turned out nice. I added a 1/3 cup of flaxseed meal to the dry ingredients, and 1/2 cup crushed walnuts. Since, I am vegan, I added soymilk insted of milk, and I suppose you using applesauce to replace egg here right? How does that work exactly? Thanks, virginia, L.A. Macrobiotic chef
