From the moment I spot the browning bananas, I get excited because I know a good loaf of banana bread is in my future. :)

This nutmeg cinnamon spiced banana bread recipe is so easy to make and tastes so delicious and moist too!

For nutmeg I used freshly grated and for cinnamon i used highest-quality grounded cinnamon powder which i bought it from Australia.
My son loves cakes especially homemade ones, so i made it most of the time at home. Those who know me personally they know how i am enjoying while baking a cake or bread.

Baking is emotion for me😜😍, i really enjoy my time in my kitchen while baking.

HOW TO STORE YOUR NUTMEG CINNAMON BANANA BREAD

Once your banana bread is baked, I’m sure it won’t last long! Whenever I bake it for my family, everyone fights over the last slice.

Leave the banana bread unsliced and store in an air tight container.  Without the slices, the banana bread has a much better chance of not drying out.

If you’ve sliced it and need to store it, store it the same way but also cover the sliced end in plastic wrap or foil paper. This keeps the air from seeping into the bread which can dry it out even faster.

To extend the life of your banana bread, follow all the same steps but store in the fridge. Room temperature can keep for about 3 days before it starts to dry out.


The fridge will keep for about 1 week. I usually put into my fridge, whenever I want to enjoy it. Cut a slice and warm it in microwave for 20 seconds. Enjoy with hot cup of tea.
