i have made 4 batches of this bread in the last week, i like to give homemade goodies for CHRISTMAS, this is the easiestbanana bread i have ever made i substitute vanilla for butter nut flavoring and add chopped nuts
I make this banana bread 3-4 times a month. It is delicious and very easy to make. I always have the ingredients in the house, so when we want something sweet and moist to eat I bake it.
I love Paula Deen but this recipie is a flop I made it twice and both times the bread come out like crap. the outside cooked and the inside fell and became big holes. Dont Make!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Maybe you had the oven on too hot? I’ve made about 10 loaves with this recipe and have never had a problem.
I’ve made it twice last week & fixing to prepare a 3rd time. It was moist, yummy & came out perfect. No problems.
Absolutely loved this recipe! It is now my go to recipe for Bananna Bread. I added 1/2 cup chopped black walnuts and before baking I sprinkled the top w/ dark brown sugar. Big hit with my family and friends. This will be one that I use as gifts at Christmas.
My old co-worker turned me onto this recipe and it’s a hit! I made 3 loaves for a bake sale and they went quick. Awesome and easy to make since you mix everything together!!
Absolutely the best and easiest banana bread recipe I have ever used. Love it!!!
