Well despite the batter being too big for my pan, this bread turned out AWESOME! The most delicious, moist banana bread I have ever eaten! I will definitely make this again... trying in a bigger pan next time! :-) I would definitely recommend this recipe to anyone who is tired of dry rubbery banana bread... this one is almost like cake - YUM!!!!

Somehow this turned out a little dry for me, which I don't understand since everyone is raving about it being moist. On the whole it was good tasting-just a little less moisture. I did think that the time specified to bake was a little much, if I had taken out my pan from the oven in 45mins. it would hv been better I think. I did add a half cup of ground walnuts. Thanks!

after trying too many recipes for Banana Bread, I found this GEM of a recipe, adding it to my favorites as "the Best Banana Bread". its so moist and the flavor...yum !! I use 2 Tablespoons of plain yogurt instead of Sour Cream...you know how plain yogurt gets some clear liquid after a while? that liquid works well along with the yogurt itself. and I use the smaller loaf pans... this recipe makes 2 of those. I give this a 10!!
