  1. "Boy that bread sure smells good!" This is all I heard from my husband while this bread was baking. And the taste was every bit as satisfying! The bananas add just the right amount of added sweetness and the poppyseeds, just the right little crunch. Be sure to use a nice ripe banana for this to give it a rich flavor. I can't wait for lunch so I can have a peanut butter sandwich ;)!! Thanks for another great recipe, Chia!
     
  2. This bread is fabulous. It has a nice sweet flavor and moist texture. I didn't have any poppy seeds, but I didn't feel like anything was missing. This will become a regular in my bread machine. Thanks for a great recipe, Chia.
     
  3. This recipe makes a yummy loaf of banana bread! I don't care for poppy seeds so I didn't add them but turned out great overall. Thanks!
     
  4. This makes a nice large loaf of bread with great texture. The mixture of honey and banana smell great while baking. Love the crunch of the poppy seeds. Great recipe to use up over-ripe bananas. Just wanted to add that this is really yummy as toast. The banana flavour seemed alot stronger, whether it was because it was left over night or because it was toasted I'm not sure but be sure to save some for morning toast.
     
  5. Don't add the salt on top of the yeast (or in a way that both are in direct contact)! if you're using live yeast it will reduce it's action (it will kill a part of it!). For the people who have rise problems this could have been the cause.
