Did not like this recipe. It doesn't call for any type of oil so the end product is dry and chewy. I'd say add 1/4 cup veggie oil or melted butter to fluff it up.

Very easy and tasty banana bread. I used egg whites instead of real eggs. I only used 1/2 c of chocolate chips. The bread was perfect, nice texture and crumb, not overly sweet. Wonderful toasted with a little butter. Thanks for posting...

Very good! I made muffins out of these and got about 8. They were so quick and easy to make, and I loved the simple ingredients list. A great alternative to banana bread! Thanks! Made for Potluck game.

I made this into muffins instead of a loaf. Plus, I only had 2 bananas, so I added a 1/2 cup of applesauce. I baked them in a greased muffin tin for 25 minutes, and they were done perfectly.
