     Great! Used nonfat yogurt instead of the egg white and substituted whole wheat flour. Sprinkled roasted sunflower seeds on top for a little crunch. - 3/19/10

     Used Splenda instead of sugar, and found out you can only replace 1/3 to 1/2 of the flour with whole wheat flour, otherwise your bread dosen't rise :) It was good anyway! - 11/23/09

     It was a good recipe, except the bread was not very flavorful. Tasted more like Soda-bread, than Banana Bread.

    I would definitively reccomend adding 2 bananas and some more vanilla or cinnamon. - 9/24/11

     This recipe was easy to make and tastes great. I put it in two small pans, one for me and one for my husband. I added a few nuts in his. I am making my second batch now and it smells great. - 5/16/10

     This was a good recipe! I'm always looking for ways to cut down oil and sugar and this one was still good. I used 1c. WW pastry flour and 1/2 C white. Also added about 1/2 c golden raisins. It didn't rise too tall, but was still tasty. Will make it again! Makes 1 big loaf. - 12/4/10

     I made this tonight for a group of friends and everyone loved it! YUM! I made 2 changes...I used Whole Wheat Pastry Flour and 1 diced apple. - 5/27/10

     Delicious and light! I have never felt less guilty eating banana bread before. This is very tasty! - 5/18/10

     LOVE THIS RECIPE! I like to use extra banana so I have to add more baking soda and baking powder. If you aren't worried about using the yolk, leave one yolk as well. I have used this basic recipe but then added all kinds of twists to make it "tropical" banana bread or other fun ideas. - 4/13/10

     I made this for some company, and everyone loved it! It doesn't taste low fat and is so moist and yummy! I might add a little more cinnamon next time. - 2/3/10

     I made this today & liked it. Not as fluffy as regular recipes with butter & seemed a lot sweeter but still good. Pretty loaf & great aroma. Easy! - 3/7/19

     Not sure what I did wrong, but it came out burnt black and smelled like pretzels the whole time it was cooking... :( - 5/12/14
  • KAY353
     Used whole wheat flour, partial honey, extra bananas. Saved mashing by using blender, added an apple. - 9/30/13
  • LADYBAST67
     Great recipe I only use 1/2 C sugar or I use Splenda blend and only about 1/3 C I add more cinnamon and a pinch of nutmeg also, this time I added oats and brown sugar on the top for a different effect. I love this recipe and have done it many times I cannot eat fat so it is perfect! - 8/6/13

     Love this recipe! I'm not big on sweets but this one was just right. I also added 4 strawberries! Yummy! - 3/12/13
  • JDIA014
     I used natural yogurt instead of applesauce (because I have not found applesauce in Norway yet), 1/2 cup of sugar, and a little less than 1/4 cup of butter. 1/2 c. was oats, and the other 1c was flour. It's baking now. The consistency looks good and the batter tasted nice. Let's see how it goes! - 9/23/12

     Loved, loved this recipe, easy and delicious! I crushed up some walnuts and added to the top. I love banana bread and glad to find a recipe we really like! - 6/5/12
