Now going to the banana bread..I adopted this recipe from dear Raaga's blog..I like making banana breads as they are fool proof and does not need any kneading,raising stuff..I had some overripe bananas waiting to be used up..Here goes my recipe with a little variation from Raaga's.I reduced the amount of sugar and added some dried cranberries.I also replaced one egg with some milk and oil.I got a fluffy,soft and moist bread..
