THIS BUTTERY BANANA BREAD recipe is by far our families all time favorite. Simple ingredients most of us already have. EZ directions my 10 year old was able to make a loaf. No other banana bread recipe out there beats this absolutely moist, delicious melt in your mouth, rich buttery banana flavor through and through. It stores up to 2 days lightly covered on your counter and of course it's totally gone by the 3rd day. A+ recipe ! And yes depending on your oven (we have a gas oven), the only adjustment we made was the baking time. We made many perfect loafs from this recipe baking them only for 1 hour to a rich golden brown and double checking it with a butter knife which should come out clean.
