Healthy Honey and Oat Banana Bread

Healthy Honey and Oat Banana Bread

Happy new year everyone! I’m back in the kitchen again and as you guys saw on Instagram today, I was getting my bake on and preparing lots of snacks including this healthy honey and oat banana bread for the week ahead.

It’s a one-bowl wonder (my favourite kind of recipe!) and lasts forever wrapped up in the freezer. You can put it straight into the toaster and into your lunchbox for it to thaw out by morning tea time.
