Recipe Note
Chill your banana bread before using for this recipe (Maybe even 30 minutes in the freezer) – The bread will cut easier and retain it’s sliced shape better as you dredge and transfer to the griddle.
When making your whip cream, add a tablespoon of Maple Extract for an added bit of flavor.
