Few things are better than receiving a homemade baked item from a friend or family member who makes it best. If you're the banana bread master of the family, everyone will appreciate your delicious banana bread as a holiday gift. You may know how to whip up several loaves of banana bread, but presenting them to someone as a gift is a different story.
