I don't know how she makes it, but its fabulous! The BEST lemon ice I have ever experienced!

Dairy-Free = The Way to Be!


Two years ago I found out I had a dairy allergy. I thought there was no way I would be able to live without dairy, so I have been tolerating the side effects, up until last week. I gave up dairy and so far it has been pretty easy. I wasn't sure how I was going to be able to not bake, seeing how most things require butter, and I wasn't sure what a good substitute was for it. My family just happened to have one of the recommended dairy-free butters in the fridge, so I thought I'd give it a try with one of my FAVORITE recipes....B-A-N-A-N-A BREAD!



The secret for this dairy-free recipe is simply a non-butter margarine, its completely free of dairy :) This is the brand I used.



And this is how you make Famous BananaBallweg Bread, sorry but I can't disclose the recipe, its a family secret ;-)
