From the mellow sounds of the Ukulele, to the beautifully arranged leis, the Hawaiian Islands will forever hold a special place in the hearts and minds of visitors and residents alike. Experiencing the “Aloha” state indulges each of the senses, but it is often the “special touches” that make time spent on these truly unique islands so unforgettable. As a permanent Maui resident, it comes as no surprise that a special island touch has made its way into my kitchen and my business. Combining a passion for baking and an ample supply of locally grown bananas, my “special touch” of fresh baked banana bread was born. Greetings with a friendly smile and this tasty treat have become my way to extend the spirit of aloha. In sharing this recipe, it is my hope that others will be able to do the same. So whether it is baked for clients, friends or your ‘Ohana, I have found that each homemade batch generally has the same result…they’ll go bananas!!!
