Jeffrey Good
I thought the bread was dry and didn’t pack a punch compared to other banana breads I’ve tasted
Erin Jones
I substituted 1/2 of the oil for apple sauce. Really moist and oh so delicious. I should have doubled the recipe. It was gone in 5 minutes
Patricia Nelson
Added 1/2 cup of choc chips
Gina Powell
The best & easiest to make banana bread ever! I’d show you a picture but it was gone before it had a chance to cool. DELISH!!!
Robert Castro
Great recipe , I made it in a caste iron skillet. Unfortunately, it didn’t rise as much as I expected but other than that a great breakfast treat!
James Olsen
Very happy with the results although I did finesse it a little. I used 3 ripe bananas (about 1 1/4 cups) instead of the 3/4 cup given in the recipe. At the recommendation of another reviewer I added a 1/2 cup of brown sugar, 1/2 teaspoon of cinnamon and doubled the vanilla. Next time I think I’ll increase the nuts.
Heidi Garrett
Very easy and a lot of fun to make. Hardly takes any time, and the finished bread was delicious. The cooking time was exactly right (I used a shallow 9×9 pan). I wanted just a “taste” but ended up having a whole slice, couldn’t stop myself.
Erika Townsend
I am not much of a baker, but this was pretty easy and pretty good. Alittle dry, but very good with coffee or milk. I added dried cranberries and and used apple sauce instead of oil and followed recipe as it is. I will make it again.

Made this recipes muffins for my husband, with the addition of his favourite golden raisins – he loved it! The best he has had. Simple, sweet, and scrumptious recipe. Thank you!

I substituted the eggs with unsweetened applesauce for a vegan. The recipe got rave reviews. For me it was a little too sweet. But, for a sweet tooth it is perfect.
Scott Banks
Great recipe! The only thing I added was a little cinnamon.
Eric Shepherd
This is by far the best combination of ingredients needed for Banana walnut bread. This turned out great.
Kenneth Hernandez
Tastey, but you better eat it right away. Moist straight out of the oven but by the next day it was pretty dry.
