Allie's Banana Bread sells freshly baked banana bread in a range of flavors, featuring a signature recipe.

Allie has been baking her Grandma Sheila's banana bread recipe ever since she was little. Growing up, she’d make it for middle school bake sales, post-soccer practice snacks, housewarming gifts - she pretty much brought banana bread with her wherever she went. 

Allie graduated from Syracuse University in 2016 with a BFA in photography, and shortly after college, used her photo skills to showcase the baked goods on social media - just for fun! The response was great, and unexpectedly, people beyond her friends and family wanted to buy their own. In 2018, Allie started a side hustle selling the banana bread. She would bake the banana bread once a week, pack it in a suitcase, and deliver it to people around the city after work. It ended up doing so well that it eventually became her full-time job in September 2020.

Allie's Banana Bread is available wholesale in a few locations across NYC and direct to consumer with nationwide shipping through her website. Allie's Banana Bread has Vegan and Gluten Free flavors in addition to their classics - Plain, Chocolate Chip, Peanut Butter Cup, Oreo, and Snickerdoodle - and expect an exciting limited flavor to drop each month!

this is the best banana bread i've ever had and it's not even close. I gift ABB to friends and coworkers all the time and haven't met a person who hasn't LOVED it. honestly, it's wild.

shipping is expensive. And I mean, I get it, it is a solid brick of happiness. 

The BEST banana bread I have ever had. Dense,  moist, and hands down delicious. 

Price is more than I would spend for something I make at home regularly, but these are fresh and the flavors make them unique. The shipping is $15 which is understandable given the short shipping time and weight of a dense bread, but unless I’m ready to buy a few loaves it’s a little pricey. 

Allie’s banana breads got me off a targeted ad, and I have to say….they really hit the mark with this one. I would never normally spend money on mail order banana bread over making it at home, but they caught me in a moment of weakness and when I saw the oreo flavor it was game over. I ordered the snickerdoodle, oreo, and chocolate chip loaves….WOW. How she manages to keep them SO moist and delicious is beyond me! I threw two loaves in the freezer and one in the fridge (which was gone in 3 days!) and my roomie and I eat a piece with nut butter on top every morning-but these can really stand alone! The flavors are unique and delicious, absolutely addicting! Allie is very up front about when she ships (Mon-Wed) in order to keep orders as fresh as possible and packages with care. 

I’m addicted to this banana bread! It’s the perfect combination of soft/gooey on the inside but structured/fully baked on the outside. I’ve literally had dreams about this…. It’s absolutely delicious and keeps very well (even after freezing and reheating). 

My only complaint is the cost of shipping, but  then again, it’s a small business shipping fresh food so oh well!
