9. Best Weight Watchers Banana Bread
No matter the time of year, you can never go wrong with homemade banana bread. Some recipes for banana bread have way too much butter and sugar, which you don’t need because bananas have so much natural sweetness.

You can also eat it at room temperature, though.

Bake them until they’re golden brown.
