     I made this, in cupcake form. I didn't have any oatbran, so used a multi grain bran cereal that I did have on hand. I also added approx 1/3 cup of natural, chopped, dates. With the dates added, and made into cupcakes, still 125 calories per serving. YUM! - 9/7/07

     I am not a huge fan of banana nut bread but my husband is, so I make it for him a few times per year. I tried a small slice while it was warm and it was absolutely delightful and super moist. My husband loved it too, not knowing it was low in fat. Great recipe! I used unsweetened applesauce. - 9/27/09

     Just tried this banan bread. OMG. It is excellent. The only thing I changed was adding walnuts due to personal preference. Also, next time I may turn down the oven a bit, it was really dark and crispy when baked but still good. - 4/3/09

     mmm... made it and I will make it again. I added raisins and walnuts. Good for anyone else out there who wants something nutritious and not sooo sweet! - 8/31/08

     Easy, no synthetic ingredients, and best of all tasty!!! I used spelt flour and doubled the baking powder and it turned out great! - 7/9/07

     I'm always looking for something to do with my banana that I don't quiet get to. I used brown sugar splenda substitute for the sugar. It's a little on the sweet side, but I might have not calculated for the substitutions. Overall it's a nice hearty bread. - 10/19/09

     This was my first time making banana bread, and it turned out wonderfully! I made it to serve as dessert after dinner tonight, and I'm having a hard time not eating it. I found the calorie calculation to be pretty accurate. I'm excited for my family to try it! - 9/27/09

     I just made this bread yesterday. It is so moist and easy to make. I was really surprised when I didn't have to put in any butter or white sugar, you don't even miss it. Makes me feel good about eating something delicious. - 8/18/09
  • YELLOWROSIE

     I'm not really a banana bread fan, but this recipe isn't bad - nice & moist and a good flavor, especially considering it's low fat & low cal and healthy. I think next time I'll add more spices - like those in the Pampered Chef cinnamon extra. - 5/24/08

     My son really loved it. It is nice and sweet. - 5/14/08

     This is my new favorite muffin recipe! I didn't have any bananas ripe enough so I alterred it to make cinnamon walnut chocolate chip muffins! They were perfect. I love to add oat bran in wherever I can and the texture and taste of these is great! Can't wait to try it with other additions. - 12/9/07

     Quick and delicious! I didn't have any apple sauce but it still worked great with thawed apple juice concentrate - 8/25/07
  • CHUBBYCHEEKS21
     This was not only my first made banana bread, but it was the best tasting banana bread. It was a huge hit in my family and I love the moistness and the taste. I plan on making this banana bread for future events. - 8/21/07

     This is great! I made mine with Splenda brown sugar. Doesn't even taste healthy! :D - 7/26/07

     Very good lots of flavor, not dry. - 6/14/07

     I used 1/3 cup of honey instead of sugar as I have run out of brown sugar. I also had only 100ml of apple sauce not 1/2 a cup. I used wheat bran not oat bran as that is also what I have on hand. The calorie count is basically the same (4 calorie per slice difference). Very good. - 10/13/10

     I made these on Sunday in my muffin tin...they are moist and flavorful. I added a few dried cranberries and it's absolutely sinful. My daughter (9) claimed 6 as hers....she thought they were "to die for"! - 10/12/10
  • GINADOWNUNDER
     I just made this and it is really good. I sprinkled a little bit of sugar and cinnamon over the top of the mixture before baking. It turned into a crisp layer which melts in your mouth. I'm hoping the kids get home from school soon to demolish this or else I will be tempted to have another piece! - 9/23/10
