We’re not selling Grandma Sita’s banana bread just yet, but you can still bring it into your home. This is the same soft, rich banana bread she bakes two to three times a week—made with backyard bananas, and fresh eggs. The full recipe is available in our recipe section, so you can bake it just like she does.
Grandma Sita’s love for baking started in Haʻapai, Tonga, where her father was the first on the island to own a large indoor oven. Back then, that was a big deal. He opened his own bakery and became known across the island for his fresh bread and baked goods. That’s where young Sita learned the basics, watching, helping, and eventually mastering the craft herself.
Today, in Kailua, Hawaiʻi, she bakes her famous banana bread three times a week using bananas grown in her backyard and mixing everything by hand, just like she was taught. No shortcuts, no machines,just muscle memory and heart. Her banana bread has become a daily treat in the home.
Soft, moist, and rich in flavor, each loaf carries not just the taste of ripe bananas, but the history of where Sita came from and the legacy her father started. This isn’t just banana bread, it’s the story of her family, baked into every bite.
