5 spots serving up mouth-watering banana bread in Birmingham
Banana bread-making was one of the most popular quarantine pastimes, and at one point last May, it was even the most-searched-for recipe across the US. Although the trend seems to have died down, we’re happy to report the buttery bread is still just as tasty—especially the banana bread treats from these local shops. And what better day to celebrate than today, on National Banana Bread Day?
1. Joyful Food Co.
Joyful Food Co.’s Banana Bread is pretty much all you could want in a loaf. Made with organic bananas, almond and coconut flour, free-range eggs, walnuts and more, it’s the perfect mix of moist and crunch. Plus, it’s paleo, gluten-free and dairy-free.
They offer online pre-ordering for pick up and local delivery to the Birmingham area for only $4.

3. Edgar’s Bakery
Four words: Banana Nut Pound Cake. The best part about this baked treat from Edgar’s is that it will last a couple of days (or not if you’re anything like me). The loaves only cost around $8 and they’re available for in-store pickup, delivery or shipping.
