Listed in that favorite post of mine, there is a recipe from Real Mom Kitchen for Banana Bread. She used a Butter Pecan cake mix… which is where my idea for red velvet banana bread originated.
I went back and forth over whether or not I would actually make it. Not because I was worried about how it would taste (it’s practically just chocolate + banana, and we know that works, right!?), but because I had no idea how my readers were going to respond!
I mean… doesn’t red velvet banana bread just sound… iffy to you? Sort of weird, right?
Ok. I get that.
