3 cups sugar, makes an unsuccessful banana bread
So moist and delicious! It is my go to recipe now.
We make this every other week. It always makes enough for me to give some away to neighbors and my daughter and I love it and so do our 2 dogs. I add cinnamon and allspice for flavor and make in mini loaf pans I got on Amazon
Since trying this Bananna Bread, I make it anytime we have 4 over-ripe bannanas. It’s moist, not too sweet, and extra tasty because of the butter. The last loaf I made, I threw a cup of chopped walnuts in. My partner loved it. Perfect loaf for breakfast slices, or to take to a meeting. You won’t have anything left!
I made this recipe yesterday and it was fast and easy. It came out delicious! So moist and flavorful. Even the next day sitting out cuz I forgot to put it away, it was still moist n delicious! I didn’t have to add a thing. It was perfect as is.
Super moist, absolutely LOVE…
Amazing! So light and moist. Many inquiries when I’ll be making it again.
I get compliments everytime I make this recipe.
Very easy recipe to follow, I tweaked this recipe by using 1 cup of apple sauce replacing 2 cups of sugar, and also putting in 1 cup of raisins soaked in rum, and 1.5 cups of walnuts. This really makes this banana bread to the next level. If you use these tweaks add your buttermilk little by little until the batter is correct. Any leftover batter you can use for banana nut pancakes.
Made it for a baby shower, it was a hit! I highly recommend this banana bread!
My bride and I have made this for Christmas gifts every year for the past 25 years and everyone can’t wait to get it. We put nuts in a few loaves, berries in a few more, chocolate chips in some, but most of the family likes it plain
Excellent! Even better with chopped walnuts!
Life changing!
very easy to do and delicious
Very good…moist. Will definitely make this again. My only substitutes were almond milk in place of buttermilk and butter in place of margarine since I didn’t have those items. Update…this is my go-to banana bread when I over buy bananas! Have used this recipe three times. This time I added walnuts. Very good!
Best recipe I’ve ever used!!! Amazing! I added chocolate chips and pecans. Thank you so much for sharing this.
This is an excellent recipe, I think, and versatile. I subbed 1 cup of flour with a gluten free one and used egg substitutes. It didn’t rise as well but still gave me a delicious cake! I also put strawberries on top before baking.
Easy recipe; I used 5 larger banana and split it up in small individual pans or gifts.
I used 2 1/2 cups flour instead of the 3.5 cups. The bread is very light, I like that it is not super sweet, the flavor of banana really comes through! The recipe had a yield of 3.5 loafs! Very soft and supple!! Will definitely make this again!! Maybe for Welcome Back To School soon!!
Added 1/2 cup golden raisins!
Love this simple large recipe. So far I made as is then used blueberries now making with strawberries and bananas. My next one my be apple or peaches.
