I love classic banana bread, but I don’t like to bake. So I usually eat it when my mother-in-law makes it for me. However, we were invited to a last minute dinner party and I didn’t have anything to bring, but I always have bananas at home, so I decided to create this Banana Orange Bread and everybody liked it. Enjoy!

Thank you so much for this website!!
My daughter's best friend is colombian and my daughter decieded to do her country report on Colombia. Part of the project was to cook a tradtional dish of the country and bring it in to share w/ the class. I searched the internet and I was over whelmed w/ the items I found and thought it would be a loss (the dish is do tomorrow 5-18)
Then I came across your website and I really have to say THANK YOU! Your recipes are clear and easy to follow. I'm baking the bread as I type this and the house is smelling YUMMY!
Thank you again for your site and keeping my daughter from getting a zero : )

This sounds more like a wonderful fruit cake. I add orange to most of my banana breads, as i am not too fond of banana & orange adds that refreshing taste. looks professionally done.

I love new twists on the classic banana bread! This orangy version sounds delicious because the tangy twsit must really complement the sweetness of the banana, balancing the whole thing out. Thanks!
