Holiday French Vanilla BANANA walnut Dessert

Thanks to Torani I know that noone will come close to baking anything as special as my Holiday French Vanilla Banana Walnut dessert.  Rather than baking ordinary banana bread I desired to surprize my family with a sweet treat.  Torani made this possible and had my spouse begging for more.

 

Ingredients

 

1 box quick bread Banana

2 eggs

1/4 cup of water

3 tablespoons of vegetable oil

1 small bag of walnuts

3 tablespoons of Torani Sugar-free French

Vanilla

 

Instructions

Pre-heat oven to 375 degrees

grease pan

mix together all the ingredients

pour in pan

bake for 45 minutes

Let cool for about a half hour

 

The french vanilla added the perfect amount of sweetness.  Not only was the warm dessert delicious but my home carried a heavenly scent for the remainder of the day.  Optional ideas include placing a scoop of french vanilla ice cream on the dessert when serving and have your favorite java brewing and bottles of Torani on hand.  Enjoy~

I would like to thank She Speaks again for the wonderful opportunity to try the Torani Syrups in exchange for my honest review.

T0RANI~Sweet Festive Taste Without The Calories

Ladies, just in time for the holidays... a sweet treat for

your family and friends.  Torani syrups come in a variety of delicious flavors which you can add to your coffee and/or enhance your baked treats.  With over 120 flavors in sugar-free and regular there will be plenty of ways to satisfy everyone on your guest list.  I was the fortunate recepient of both the salted caramel  syrup and the gingerbread syrup as a sponsered post for SheSpeaks and Torani.  The sugar free syrups equal zero calories yet satisfy your sweet tooth.  For Thanksgiving, I brought my bottle of  Torani Gingerbread Syrup down to my mother-in-laws and we all indulged in our festive flavored coffee.  For a fraction of the price, Torani makes it possible to enjoy your favorite drinks at home.  Torani was an instant hit with my relatives, I am looking forward to purchasing a few other flavors to take down for Christmas day!  They also would make a hot holiday gift!  Once home I incorporated the Torani Gingerbread Syrup in with my favorite pumpkin pie recipe.  You guessed it, another success~  My family gobbled the pie down within one day.  Here is the recipe for you to enjoy!
