This is really good, it is different than most banana breads, maybe not as moist or as dark but still very yummy. I love the topping. Easy to make and tastes wonderful. I used walnuts instead of pecans just because its what I had on hand. My husband is a banana bread freak and has demolished one loaf by himself and has started the second one. My daughter took a piece in her school lunch and the TA sent a note home asking for the recipe because it looked and smelled so good. Thanks for a great recipe.

    This is by far the best banana bread I have ever made or tasted. It has a wonderful light and fluffy texture that I have never seen in a banana bread. My husband loves it so much he brings it on his business trips to give out to co-workers! Thanks for the recipe!

    OH MY STARS!! A kazillion stars for this one!! I had heard about this recipe and posted a request for it. Miss Annie took the time to enter it JUST FOR ME!! (lol) I am soooo grateful she did! This is the lightest, fluffiest banana nut bread I have ever tasted. I have been in heaven all afternoon. It was very easy to put together also. I laid the cheese and butter out this morning to soften and put it together after lunch. I used the cinnamon crisp topping minus the extra pecans (felt like it had enough pecans in bread) I hope you enjoy this recipe as much as my family and I have! THANK YOU MISS ANNIE!! — **edited to add I made one (8"x4")loaf and 12 muffins. The muffins were done in about 30/35 mins. These were a hit also!!

    Somebody better pinch me quick!! This banana bread is sensational! A texture unlike quite any other banana bread I have ever tasted! Full of flavor with a light and rich fluffiness instead of dense like most other banana breads I've made. Yet in no way is it lacking in flavor! V e r y flavorful!! I made the Cinnamon-Crisp Topping, and I have known from making other toppings, to automatically double it : ) I made one 8 x 4 loaf and 6 jumbo muffins which I plan to wrap individually and freeze for a quick breakfast or snack. I toasted the pecans that went into the mix and did not toast the one going into the topping. They will toast on their own while baking. Miss Annie, what can I say? You're the TOPS!
