2/13/08 You will never find a moister banana bread! The color is a deep brown so it is as gorgeous as it tastes.<br/><br/>This particular "Kona Inn" recipe is the one I have used for over 15 years.<br/>I make 4 mini loaves as gifts for teachers and friends. <br/><br/>My twist: I always add 1/2 C mini chocolate chips. Dried cranberries are good too!<br/><br/>4/13/2012 Edit to add: I do not use vegetable shortening. The version of Kona Inn Banana Bread that I use, calls for margarine or butter.

I've tried a lot of banana bread recipes over the years and this recipe is by far the best. My husband never really liked banana bread until I made this exact recipe. Don't skip on the amount of ripe bananas, it is what makes it SO INCREDIBLE.
