  1. I also happened to have everything on hand to make this recipe. Which in my kitchen is unusual. I found it incrediblly easy to make, I did the whole thing in the food processer!!! Because I don't like to have a whole "loaf" on hand at once, I made it in my muffin tins, and baked them only 20 minutes. I got 24 nice sized muffins,that were very moist, and had a good flavor. In half of them I put chocolate chips, because my daughter likes them. I would love to be able to figure out how to put peanut butter in them. This recipe will replace my old favorite!!
     
  2. I had some over-ripe bananas, so I came here to look for a banana bread recipe. I happened to have all the ingredients on hand needed for this recipe, so I tried it. I am glad I did. This bread was nice and dense, yet very moist, and most of all incredibly delicious. It makes a very filling snack or breakfast, and it's easy to make too! (A big plus in my book.) I doubled the recipe to make 2 loaves, and it worked perfectly. Thanks for sharing your recipe...it will become a regular in our house.
     
  3. Just a good basic yummy banana bread recipe. Thank you so much!
     
  4. This is a very tasty recipe. I added vanilla because I just love it in banana bread. I will definately make this again. I too used my food processor and made muffins instead of a loaf. Thanks!!

  1. Love this recipe! We're not nut fans so I replace the nuts with choc chips. For more of a dessert type of bread/cake, I also add cocoa powder and butterscotch chips and bake is a bunt pan. Some times I even add some sweetened coconut if I have it on hand. It so Yumerful!
     
  2. I made a half batch of this into six muffins last night and baked them for about 20 minutes. Prep was VERY easy, and I loved how easy the batter was to get into the muffin tin in nice equal portions with virtually no mess. When they came out of the oven, they had an amazing crunchy yet light crust. Today, the leftovers do not have this wonderful crunch but are still good. My only complaint is that, both yesterday and today, they've seemed just a little bit greasy. Maybe substituting applesauce for some of the oil could help with this if I ever have it on hand.
     
  3. I just finished making this recipe with my 20 month old, who loves to help out in the kitchen. The only modifications I made was adding 1 tsp. of vanilla, 1/2 of lemon juiced and using bread flour instead of all-purpose flour. It is incredibly moist and not super sweet. It's just simple and delicious banana bread. Thank you for the recipe!
     
  4. Very delicious and *very* easy to make. Mine took about 45-50 minutes in a metal loaf pan to bake. I also substituted apple sauce for the oil, used walnuts, and added some sunflower seeds. The sunflower seeds gave a very nice flavor... try it!
     
  5. I love this recipe! I used splenda instead of sugar and it turned out great! Next time I'm gong to use applesauce instead of the oil to cut back the calories even more.
