Banana Orange Bread

Pin It

I'll be honest, most of the time I skip breakfast. I know it's the most important meal and all that, but I'm just not hungry first thing in the morning and I am too tired to want to make breakfast.
This bread is so good and has such a bright flavor, and if you make it the night before it's a quick thing to grab in those groggy hours after waking.
With or without the glaze, this bread was a huge hit in our house!
