I have always loved banana bread but didn’t have a recipe that suggested less than 2 cups of sugar (eeeck!). Banana bread with that much sugar is basically sugar bread with banana and not what I consider a snack.  Then my sister showed me a recipe she had discovered and since then I haven’t looked back!
