There is nothing like eating a warm slice of freshly baked banana bread just out of the oven.

 

Talk about the ultimate comfort food.  My neighbor recently gave us 3 bunches of bananas and I knew that banana bread would be in our future!

I was running low on flour and didn’t want to make a run to the grocery store, but I did have a cake mix.

 

Banana Bread with a Cake Mix

 

To make banana bread with a cake mix, you basically replace the water that is called for, with smashed bananas. Bananas really make everything better, don’t they 😉

 

 

Cake Mix Banana Bread can be made with so many variations, the sky is the limit!

 

Try using a spice cake mix, a chocolate cake mix, a vanilla cake mix with chocolate chips, and more!

 

This recipe will make two standard size loaves of banana bread.

 

 

If you don’t plan on eating it all in one sitting, it will usually last 1 or 2 days at room temperature or about 1 week in the refrigerator, stored in an air-tight container or ziplock bag.

 

You can also freeze this banana bread. Just wrap it in plastic wrap, followed by tin foil and it should last a couple of months.

 

 

To thaw it out, remove it from the freezer and and allow it to come to room temperature on your kitchen counter. This should take about 2 hours.
