Easy & relatively healthy banana bread recipes?

[Emmas Mom]

I bought a huge bunch of bananas at Costco yesterday & I'm sure they'll go bad before we eat them all. I'd love see if anyone has a good recipe for banana bread or muffins or something along those lines. At least that way I won't be worried that we're wasting bananas, plus I'm sure my girls would love it. :)

Here's a link for a muffin recipe we made last month:

It was a big hit at school snacktime! I used the tiny frozen blueberries (sometimes sold as wild blueberries), and used half whole wheat flour.

you can throw over ripe bananas in the freezer and use them in bread later, too.
