I tried this recipe as is and it was really good, I then tried the recipe adding 1/2 cup of heavy cream like suggested and I have to say this is better. The bread was moist and by far the best I have ever tasted. I get compliments from everybody. I can only make this banana bread when I have company around or I will eat the entire thing.

My boyfriend said this is the best banana bread (I omitted the nuts) he has ever had.

I've never given a review on anything, but this recipe has forced me to do so. Simply delicious!!! Perfect combination between a bread and cake texture and so easy to make! Just like what my mom used to make! Thanks for sharing Carol!!

I loved this. So yummy. I also poured a little bit of sugar in the raw on top of it and it made a yummy crunchy crust. But that was just icing on the cake, so to speak! Oh, and I didn't have any walnuts.

I made all the same modifications that the other reviewers suggested. I hate waiting for the bananas to ripen so I roasted them in the oven at 400 for about 15 minutes which turned the skins black and carmelized the bananas leaving them very sweet. Yummy!

Used 1/2 cup coconut flour and white wheat for the remaining. Used three medium bananas (about 1 1/2 cups), the 1/2 cup heavy cream recommended by others, teaspoon vanilla, 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg, 1/3 cup Splenda and 1/3 cup sugar, and 1 teaspoon of cinnamon with extra sprinkled on top before placing in the oven. Only needed to cook in my oven for a little over 50 minutes. Yummy elegant taste and texture. Thanks for sharing!

I was really disappointed by this recipe. It was not moist enough. I prefer a moist and dense banana bread. This is not the recipe for that type of bread. I did add 1 tsp cinnamon, 1 tsp vanilla, 1/2 tsp nutmeg like some other reviewers. I think those were great additions. I wish I had also added the heavy cream that some others had mentioned also but unfortunately I didn't have any on hand. I think I'll be going back to my old recipe.

Delicious! I make this all the time for my coworkers and they love it. Sometimes I do chocolate chips instead of walnuts, but it is awesome both ways!! I also add some cinnamon and nutmeg.

Great bread. The baking time was spot on for me because it produced a slightly crisp crust on the bread, but some others might want to check on the loaf 5 or 10 minutes early to avoid that!
