    My husband is really picky about his banana bread and we LOVED this recipe! I make it for all the holidays. It was a big hit for easter rather than a rich, guilt filled dessert! I also had to cok it for about an hour and 10 minutes...exactly...
    Thank you for sharing!!!! - 3/25/08

    I absolutely cannot believe how delicious this is! A favorite among my entire household! It did need to bake for a good hour and 10 minutes, though... It just wasn't getting done in 45 minutes. - 2/14/08

    Very good! I used 4 mini bread pans and assuming 4 large pieces each, I get 16 servings. I used sour cream but think greek yogurt will work as I usually have that on hand and not the SC for next time. I also significantly cut the sugar down to 3/4 C and don't miss it. - 3/10/21
