Starbucks Copycat Banana Nut Bread

 Starbucks banana bread is the bomb to me. In a pinch when I don't have fresh banana bread - which is most of the time - Starbuck's bread does just fine. 

I stumbled onto this recipe and thought I'd give it a try. 

I didn't have any nuts, so it's nut free. And I gotta say...it's delicious and very good!
