I LOVE this banana bread recipe. I've made this several times. I have a batch in the oven right now! I make muffins and cook only 20-25 minutes. The only thing I do different is add mini chocolate chips. Great for breakfast or as a snack!

This is fantastic! The texture was perfect (I made mini loaves and baked for 28 minutes), and this tastes good as well as tasting healthy. I do agree with some of the other comments about using more bananas though. 1 1/2 cups does not seem to provide enough banana taste to this bread.

I made this recipe and it was dry, real dry. I did not have any honey so I used agave syrup but I can't imagine that would change it's texture. I will not make this one again unless I double the oil.

I used 4 bananas and added raisins and chocolate chips. Made muffins out of them and they are delicious. Not too sweet, which is what I like about them. Thanks!

Not a sweet banana bread, but still moist and tasty.

For me this bread was a bit dry and bland (and I was careful not to over-handle the dough). I used 4 big bananas and added 1 tsp cinnamon and some nutmeg. Next time I might add some brown sugar or chocolate chips, and use more bananas (the good bites are the ones that have little sweet chunks of banana); applesauce might also help. It also might need to be covered at least half of the time it's in the oven - the top of mine started to burn at 35 minutes (I live at high altitude. Ugh). I'll definitely try it again with these modifications.

I substituted vanilla yogurt for the vegetable oil, used ground flax instead of wheat germ (what I had on hand), used 1/4 c. honey and 1/4 brown sugar, and added 1 c. dark chocolate chips. It turned out great and the chips added a different taste to the bread that was nice!

Sorry, this did not appeal to anyone in the family. No one liked the combination of honey and banana, and it was not sweet enough. The texture was decent, that's about the only good thing I can say about it. I have tried many banana bread recipes, and this one is probably the worst.
