01of 11Classic Banana BreadView RecipeLee Harrelson; Styling: Jan Gautro, Laura ZapalowskiThis versatile bread is the perfect on-the-go breakfast, gift for a host, or holiday gift. Top it with whatever you like, and even throw some additional ingredients like chocolate chips. It’s the bread that everyone can get behind.

Serve toasted with a smear of cream cheese, Greek yogurt or peanut butter and top with mixed nuts, if desired.
