The flavor was great... but I wasn't a huge fan of the texture. I think butter instead of oil may have been a better fat to use, in my opinion, because I like the crispness of the crust that butter gives banana bread. The oil made the loaves more of a spongy, more rubbery texture (very slightly). I think I'll try that substitution next time; otherwise, it was great!
