Ever since I was a little girl, I loved cooking with my mom. One of our favorite things to do was to try recipes from cookbooks. They usually required lots of ingredients and special tools. There was a banana bread we made several times that we loved. I have some of those cookbooks still.
For my challenge we are going to use a quick and simple version of the banana bread recipe! It only has 3 ingredients!

We are using a very quick and simple sketch too.

Super Moist & Delicious Banana Bread (SO EASY!)
A quick & easy banana bread recipe made with just 3 ingredients: cake mix, bananas and eggs. Simple, moist and delicious! You can also optionally add in chocolate chips, walnuts, cinnamon, vanilla or anything else you'd like.

Ingredients
1 box yellow cake mix
3 large ripe bananas (more if it's dry)
2 large eggs
1 handful chocolate chips (optional)
Instructions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees and line or spray 2 small bread loaf pans.
In a large bowl, smash the bananas with a fork.
Add the cake mix and eggs; mix well.
Evenly distribute the cake batter into the prepared loaf pans. Top with chocolate chips, walnuts or anything else you'd like (optional).
Bake for 25-35 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean.

Recipe Notes
Do not follow the cake instructions on the box. You only need the actual cake mix, bananas and eggs.
Feel free to add in the mix-ins of your choice! Walnuts, pecans, cinnamon, vanilla, etc.
Other flavors of cake mix work fabulously as well! Try this recipe with the spice cake, chocolate cake or butter pecan flavors.
You can also make the batter into muffins, just adjust the cook time.

The recipe for your layout

You will only use 3 ingredients with an optional ingredient to sprinkle

3 different pattern papers or card stock
2 or more photos
Same shaped embellishments ( stars, hearts, flowers, circles…)
Optional:
Sprinkle with small embellishments such as:
Gems, sequins, ink splatters or drops, or buttons.
