OMG....Do this with 5 bananas, rather than 4 and it will change your world! I also subbed spray butter and 1/2 the sugar with splenda for my relatives that have heart disease and diabetes and it is WONDERFUL. I won't ever make the full recipe again. I don't even miss the fat or sugar...I promise.

This banana bread is simply delicious! It is my go-to banana bread recipe because it's easy to make and tastes wonderful. The cook time is a bit long for my oven - I would recommend checking on it 5-10 minutes early.

This is the perfect banana bread recipe. Easy, delicious, moist, fast and uncomplicated. Great with walnuts, spread with a bit of cream cheese.

This is the first recipe I've achieved success with- previous recipes came out too starchy and light in color. I didn't have any nuts, so those were omitted. After slicing off the first piece for myself, I frosted the top with some cream cheese frosting and added a light dusting of cinnamon for extra decadence. It's coming to work with me tomorrow, I can't wait to share it!

Halved the recipe, turned out great. Started to mix the sugar and bananas together by hand, no fluffy?? Got out the blender, Ah, real fluffy. Will try a combination of sugar and brown sugar next time. Good stuff!!

I was looking for a recipe for banana bread that had simple ingredients, but used a lot of banana. I agree, cinnamon adds more flavor, but once I read that people thought the bread was dry, instead of using so much butter, I used half a stick and a serving of vanilla yogurt. Although the fork mashed bananas sound good, they can add a slimy texture if the chunks are too big. I also recommend covering the bread in foil shortly after taking it out of the oven. If you use the disposable pans, it's easy and convenient. Bread stays moist, and the extra vanilla flavor is much needed.

Do NOT bake for the time that it says. The bread was way overdone and burnt on the top. I wish I had taken it out sooner. It had a burnt taste.

Tasteless to me. Barely taste bananas. Followed the recipe exactly too.

After having read others' reviews, I used 3 ripe bananas instead of 4. The top started to burn, so I checked the doneness to find out that the skewer came out dry (it was 55 minutes after I started baking. The end product was rather dry, dense and even starchy. I know I did not overbake it, so I don't know what went wrong. It is still edible, but I have had more moist, soft, flavorful ones before. I adore him, but I'm afraid that I will have to try someone else's.
