Banana Bread is a favorite of my family. I keep wanting to make french toast out of some, but I can't ever steal away some to try it with. It is always gone immediately; even when I take it to family reunions where there is a plethara of fine desserts! This is a recipe that I have had since I was young and have tweaked it over the years, and added the streusel on top.
