Great Recipe. I had a bake off with two other co-workers. We passed our baked breads around the office for judging. The bread that I had baked following this recipe was the one chosen by most of the office staff. The general consesus was: "... moist, and not too sweet."

This Rum Banana Bread filled our house with a beautiful smell as it baked this afternoon. My husband and I have just had a slice each while it is still warm and thought it was wonderful. Really tasty!

To start with I do not like banana bread (well not until now) and this is the best. At least the rum makes it interesting and it is more like a cake. My husband loves bananas and rum - so he is in heaven.
