Children are generally fussy when it comes to eating fruits. My kids are no exception. Though they do eat banana, I can never make them eat an over riped one. What can be better than a banana cake?

Sharing with you all a very simple, easy to make and a delicious and healthy banana loaf recipe. My kids eat them with relish. Hope you all would like too:)
