I decided to use my waffle iron instead of the oven because it's really hot outside, and they turned out great. Splurged and put some powdered sugar on top. I know it's supposed to be healthy, but I thought the recipe needed maybe 1/4 teaspoon of salt. Will make again! Thanks!

Thank you for this recipe! I won't mind eating low fat and low sugar if I can have banana bread on occasion!

excellent!<br/>Replaced 4 eggs with sour cream and yogurt to reduce fat (low fat sour cream and 0% greek yogurt).<br/>Also added 1 1/3 up choc chips (doubled batch)<br/>Baked in 3 9 X 5 pans for 50 minutes--perfect!

I liked this, with a couple of small tweaks. I replaced 1 of the cups of flour with 3/4 C whole wheat flour and 1/4 C milled flax seed. I also added 1 t cinnamon, 1/2 t salt and a dash of cardamom. I made it in a small bundt pan coated with Crisco then milled flax seed and Splenda. It was a pretty shape and had a little bit of a crunch. Thanks!

Very yummy! Even my daughters ages 12 and 9 loved it, and they are extremely picky! I used one cup whole-grain flour and one cup regular as well as added an extra banana and about 1/4 cup chopped walnuts. I will certainly be making this again soon, bight I might add a little less Splenda (it was a bit sweet for my taste). other than that though, AMAZING! 5 stars!
