    So easy to make and if you have a Kitchen Aid mixer, the 10 minute egg/sugar beating time is nothing! First time making banana flavored ANYTHING and it turned out great. Didn't have a loaf pan so I used my nordic ware non-stick bundt pan and it was ready in 40 minutes. Thanks to non-stick baking spray, the cake popped right out and I cut into it -- delicious!

    Absolutely delicious and easy to make.
    However I had to cook it for at least 20 minutes more. Maybe this is due to my oven not being optimal. However the result was the best banana bread I never had as it was not dry but moist and tasty.

    A great base banana bread recipe and worth the extra fluffing involved. I always have to make a few mods. No disrespect to the cook at all but for some reason I cannot follow a recipe. I added a tablespoon of chia and flax seeds, used a half cup natural sugar (powdered it using my vita-bullet instead of white. As well as used organic whole wheat pastry flower instead of all purpose white. I added 1/4 cup chopped almonds and organic dark choc. chips. I didn't have baking soda so I used extra baking powder (aluminum free instead. I used less oil because I only had olive and used one more banana, poured it all into a 8x8 square glass cake pan which was slightly overfilled and baked longer than she mentions.

    The best! Followed reviews: 1/2 cup all purpose, 1/2 cup wheat flour. 1/2 cup + 2T white sugar, 1/2 cup brown sugar. Coconut oil instead of other type. Skipped nuts. Used light sour cream as replacement. Made muffins baking for 20 min.

    GREAT!!!! Kids love. I love.

    I'm not much of a banana bread fan, but this truly was amazing. I used 1 cup white and 2/3 cup whole wheat to make it a little healthier. Still amazing! My only problem was that it wasn't fully cooked through in the middle. Next time will split between 2 smaller loaf pans.

    The best banana bread I have ever had. Fantastic recipe; the 10 minutes of whipping the eggs and sugar was well worth the wait. IF you are to use a smaller loaf pan (8x4 it makes two loaves; same temperature and same length of time. Perfect banana bread--super moist and very flavorful.

    Very moist and delicious! Next time I'm gonna have to double the recipe, because we ate it all really fast!
    I followed some suggestions from other reviewers:
    - used half & half instead of cream
    - used 1/2 sugar, 1/2 brown sugar (a little less than 1 full cup total
    - used coconut oil
    - added 1/4 teaspoon of pumpkin spice seasoning (on top of the cinnamon called for
    - added chocolate chips, instead of walnuts

    My husband and I love this bread. We buy bananas and wait patiently for them to ripen.
