Family members love making this banana bread cake recipe. The use of overripe bananas is fantastic. Usually, I make two loaves by doubling the recipe. If you want, you can also include walnuts.

The best and super easy
I replace butter with vegetable oil and use brown sugar and add cinnamon. It’s good but next time I will try with butter. It’s super easy I like it.
So easy and effortless.
Its the best ever tasted. No longer make banana bread anymore. Always make a diubke batch because it doesn’t last very long.
I added walnuts and chocolate chips
Added chocolate chips and 2 extra bananas.
Fantastic recipe, I adjusted the sugar to 1/3 instead of a cup. Super delicious and moist!
I added 1/4 cup of coconut rum and 1/4 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips to this and it turned out delicious!
It is a beautiful recipe. I added a streusel topping. I also added walnuts and made it sugar free substituting Stevia.
It’s awesome!
Doubled the recipe and made two. I added chopped walnuts and raisins and half cup of sour cream. I used one and 1/2 cup of Splenda, as my husband is diabetic. It’s excellent. I will definitely make this again.
The easiest recipe for the yummiest banana loaf cake! Mine took 40 minutes to bake at 220 C. ( i use a combi oven) The cake turned out super moist and the entire process including prep took only 55 minutes. I am definitely making it again! Thank you, Sandi for this wonderful recipe.
This turned out really tasty, soft and easy! I did add chocolate chips and instead of white sugar I used the same amount of brown sugar. It turned out great! Mine was also perfectly done in 45 minutes, but each oven differs, so it could be that mine runs a bit hot.
The perfect ingredients for a banana cake.. everyone loved it!
I really like this cake, it was really easy to make, and me and my family enjoyed is very much.
So easy all in one bowl. I followed the recipe but added 1/4 C. cocoa. Moist, delicious

Loved this Banana Bread. I made it in the food processor and it was moist, dense and flavourful. I am a terrible baker and this recipe is forgiving.
Easy, moist and extremely tasty recipe. I did use 1/2 cup sugar and 1/2 cup brown sugar. I also covered with foil last 15 minutes of baking.
I added some cranberries, chopped walnuts, ground cinnamon, and instead of vanilla extract, I used almond extract. My husband loves it!
