Great and easy recipe. My main problem is finding a bowl large enough to mix it all up in! I use gluten-free flour and only a bit over 1 cup of sugar and it comes out wonderfully. My soda never foams up, but that doesn't seem to be a problem. Makes muffins in 45 mins and feezes well. I've found if the bananas are not quite ripe enough, you can zap them in a microwave - makes them a bit mushier.

I'm glad I chose this recipe. It's moist, flavorful and delicious. I made 2/3 of the recipe in a 6 cup bundt pan - I'd had trouble with banana bread baked in the bundt pan being dry. Not this time. Thank you very much for sharing this recipe.

My Mother passed on and with her, her wonderful banana bread recipe that I have loved, since childhood. This is the closest match I have ever found! Just wonderful!

I made this useing buttermilk and switch out the pecans for almonds (I like almonds better). It was sooooooooo delicious. I brought one loaf with me to share at work and everyone was asking for the recipe. I told them I got it here and it was easy to make. Thanks so much for this recipe. I have had banana bread before, but it has ALWAYS been too dry. This is the best!!

OH wow! This is better than some of the store bought banana breads! It came out really perfect. The only thing is that i accidentally just put 1 cup of sugar instead of 2. Hmm, no wonder it wasn't sweet enough.Next time, I'll definitely put in the 2 cups of sugar to bring out the banana taste. What i had was frozen leftover bananas I had in the freezer. Whenever I have one or two bananas which is going old, I peel it and freeze it. And when I have enough, I will use it in cakes, breads or smoothies!So there is always bananas around to make something, even though you don't have any fresh ones!

This was good banana bread! I didn't have buttermilk, so I subbed with cream and lemon juice instead. Quite tasty! This bread is a bit milder on the banana taste compared to recipes with less oil and more banana's but it's good! Keeps very well -

PK,I have made your banana bread "three" times. Waited three times for bananas to turn black.The first time used the sour milk idea and in foil pans.Looked wonderful,took a bite,oh yuck!Took me a while to figure what was wrong.I didn't add the sugar! Back to watching nanas turn black. Made the bread,never did bake,just ran all over my oven. I have know idea what happened. Back to watching nanas turn black.Brought new baking soda,even tho was supposed to be good until 06.Used different type flour,used buttermilk,baked in glass loaf pans.I used walnuts,not chopping. Banana bread perfect!! Sorry it has taking so long to get this review to you.I hope you are feeling much better.Oh,and Happy Birthday. Your recipe is a keeper,PK.thank you for sharing.:0)

I just finished a slice of this miraculous banana bread. I'm so happy, I'm joyful! tearful! My old banana bread recipe has too dry! But this is WONDERFUL and will be my new favorite. I used buttermilk, and the batter will look liquidy, but don't worry, it's juuuust right when it's done. I actually cut the sugar in HALF, using ½ c brown, ½ c white, and the bananas made it plenty sweet for MY taste. One hour was perfect for 2 loaves, I also added ½ cup chopped walnuts in addition to the pecans (I like nuts).... absolutely sensational! I think my sweetie is saying he kes it too, but I'm not sure, his mouth is full.
