THIS IS GREAT!!
I made a triple batch, and everyone loved it! But...I went to put something in the microwave and found the 3 sticks of butter I was supposed to put in the batter (the next day). So its great with no butter!

This is the best banana bread recipe EVER!!! I've never tasted better! Super moist, super easy, and super delicious!! I love that it takes only 5 minutes to prep, and then you throw it in the oven for an hour! Really convenient! The first time I made it, I added 2-3 tsps of cinnamon and a dash of nutmeg, and my whole family loved it! I've made it over and over again with great results each time! It's addictive!! Thanks swimmer175!

Slightly dense and very moist, this banana bread has the flavor it all ought to have. We topped the loaf with nuts, not called for in the recipe, to distinguish it from another review -- and it was a nice touch. Simple ingredients and a great result. Made for Pick A Chef October 2008.
