Melt in Your Mouth Banana Bread

Mysterygirl's Note:

I searched and searched for a banana bread recipe with the texture that I wanted and couldn't find one. One day I decided to modify my Melt in Your Mouth Pumpkin Bread to see if I could make up my own recipe. My family loved it and it was exactly what I was looking for so here it is.

You did it again Mysterygirl! I thought the Melt In Your Mouth Pumpkin Bread was the best but this one is outstanding! If I could I would give it 10 stars! I made one and when we tasted it I just had to make two more. Can't you tell we are all banana lovers ; ) After I made the recipe your way I added a few additions to the next two. One I changed the French Vanilla Pudding to Banana Cream Pudding and added nuts. The other I added nuts and chocolate chips. Another winner and a keeper, Thanks Mysterygirl! Truely, melt in your mouth!

This was the best banana bread I've ever made! It was so moist and delicious! It did take about 1 hour 15 minutes to cook. I noticed some said it fell apart. Just make sure you test it before you take it out of the oven. Tester was almost clean(just a little "stuff" on it) when it was done. One hour would not have been enough. But is it ever yummy! My mother is a Jiffy mix banana bread person, and doesn't like any others, but she LOVED this one! Even my kids did! :o Thanks for sharing, and I CAN'T wait to try your pumpkin bread!
