Made this in the bread machine using olive oil, 2 bananas, & flax seeds. Very good! Moist, good crumb, & nice crust.

I am going to give this 3 stars for now because the crust turned out very thick and brown. I thought I made it to the recipe only omitting the seeds. I am not sure if it is my fault or my machine's fault. I ate it this morning for breakfast and I thought it was good-tasting except for the crust problem. I am going to make it again and then I will review it again.

My husband and I loved this bread! I used olive oil, and egg substitute to give it a more healthy kick. My banana was very ripe, and maybe that's why the bread had a delicious flavor of bananas. In addition to the honey, I sprinkled about a tablespoon of splenda into the mix. Thanks for a great recipe for my new bread machine!
