These sound delightful! Item —4.Combine dry ingredients in separate bowl: flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt. —leaves me wondering if something was left out here. Shouldn’t you mix the dry ingredients into the banana mixture. New cooks might be confused. I’m going to try these! Thanks for sharing.
