This was the first loaf of bread I ever made, and I'm going to have to make more because it's so delicious! I only made one loaf. It came out with a beautiful golden brown crust, the slightest hint of sweetness from the honey, and a nice soft interior. I think I added about an extra 1 1/2 cups of flour but it was fun to knead it and braid the dough. Thank you for a great recipe!

30 minutes was too long. The part that wasn't burned tasted good though. I substituted plain yogurt for the buttermilk and added 1/4 cup of honey. Next time I'll just try 20 minutes. Otherwise not bad!

Really moist and delicious. The cardamom is overpowering though. I think next time I would just leave it out altogether and add more ginger instead. I'm not a fan of walnuts & raisins in my banana bread but I added them anyway and they're pretty good in there!

I'm always looking for uses for super-soft bananas, and these muffins are a great way to use them up. I had lots of bananas so I made a double batch and they are so delicious! Really simple and good with raspberry jam.

I've never had soda bread so I had no idea what it was supposed to taste like. I didn't want it to be sweet so I omitted the sugar. Followed everything else exactly and it was delicious, basically like a biscuit in loaf form. And it was really easy, all ingredients most people have stocked in their kitchens at all times except maybe for the buttermilk. I'll definitely make this again.

Awesome. The only thing I would change is when I added the 1/2 cup of coconut to the frosting it didn't seem like enough (but then again I really love coconut)so I put in 2 whole cups of it. I kept everything else the same, and it was enough to put a nice thick layer on a 9x13 chocolate cake & still had a few spoonfuls left so I could lick the bowl :) I would use this frosting on any cake!

I had to try this because I love sauerkraut and the thought of putting it in a cake just tickled me. I was saddled with the task of making a cake for a going-away party for a co-worker, and thought I would make this as a revenge of sorts. I very roughly chopped the sauerkraut because I was going to put coconut frosting on the cake anyway and figured that if anyone got some stringy bits they would just think it was coconut. Nobody suspected anything. I got nothing but rave reviews. Even when I got a piece of what I knew was sauerkraut and bit into it, all I could taste was chocolate. This cake is so delicious and chocolatey. I recommend it to anyone who wants to try something different!

Really really good. Super moist. I added cinnamon, ginger & nutmeg (about 1/2 tsp of each). I will never ever throw away "bad" bananas again because I can just use them to make this terrific bread!

This was FANTASTIC. I added half a can of coconut milk and used curry paste instead of powder, then served it on top of some basmati rice that I cooked with the remaining coconut milk & chicken broth I had left from cooking the chicken. It's got some great flavors, sweet & spicy with just a touch of heat. I'm adding this to my favorite slow cooker recipes!
