Banana Bread Dip

How was everybody’s Labor Day Weekend? Hopefully fun, relaxing or whatever you wanted it to be! LLP extended their holiday weekend an extra day to visit San Francisco and of course eat our way through the city. :)

On to the recipe. One of my favorite breads ever is banana bread. It’s rare that I actually make banana bread though. For one, I’ll eat the whole loaf by myself and two…I hate making bread! SO MANY times I have ripe bananas, get out my loaf pan, make banana bread (with chocolate chips of course), take it out of the oven, and it’s still raw in the middle. What a bust!!

So when Kara suggested a no-bake dip that tasted like banana bread naturally I was all for it. Banana bread that I couldn’t mess up…totes into that.

Turned out great! We served it with Biscoff Cookies. Perfect compliment to Banana Bread Dip!!

Here’s what you’ll need

Add everything to the bowl...except the nuts and cookies
