This is a great low fat recipe. As with ALL banana breads you must use VERY over-ripe bananas. I didn't put the salt in though, and I used light brown sugar in place of the regular sugar, it was wonderful.

Wonderful! I actually decided on this recipe since it called for baking powder instead of soda (which I didn't have) I halved the recipe since I cook for one and I definitely don't need a whole loaf lying around =) I did add about 2 T of melted butter to the batter as another reviewer suggested to make it a little more moist and just a dash more baking powder. It just came out a few minutes ago and it's very very yummy, just the right texture, not too heavy or dense! Will definitely make again. (Oh and sidenote....I noticed a Lot of complaints that this bread is too "dense and gummy" I'm wondering if everyone is remembering to use Very Over Ripe bananas? They should be completely brown and practically liquid themselves! If you use bananas that are not ripe enough it won't be a substitute for the liquid (i.e. milk, water) that most recipes have and the bread won't turn out right)

This recipe is a good 'jumping off' point to start your bread. I could tell from the ingredients that it was going to be a lot drier and heavier than most banana breads, and since you can't be afraid to experiment with a recipe to suit your taste, I modified the recipe in a few ways: I added two more eggs, 1/3 cup of canola oil, 1/2 cup of milk, increased the sugar to 1 1/2 cups and used turbinado sugar instead of white, and also added 1 tsp. of vanilla extract and 1 1/2 tsps. of banana extract (I only had three bananas.) The resulting bread probably isn't as lowfat as the original recipe, but it's lighter, moister and sweeter - just the way we like it!

This recipe is great to do your own moifications and make it your own. I read one review saying that it was too dry so I added 1/2 cup of butter which allowed more moisture to the mix. I also added in some cranberries, so have fun making this recipe your family's favorite.

Yummy! I used whole wheat flour and added some chocolate chips. My kids (picky at ages 2, 4 and 5) gobbled it up. My husband loved it, too.

There isn't an option for anything below a one star. I tried two other recipes that same day, and they were great! This recipe was far too dense, dry and a waste of good bananas & nuts. It never did cook all the way either. Banana Bread I, was such a good recipe, try that instead.

Finally a low fat, healthier version of banana bread (not cake)! I made this recipe vegan by using egg replacer. Fantastic!

This looked like a great recipe. It was quick and easy to make and it smelled wonderful in the overn but honestly it was DRY and tasted horrible. The word for the texture would be "gumby". I was upset I wasted all the ingredients

Doubled this batch and it smelled and tasted great. However, it was extremely rubbery and dense. Could use less baking powder.
