These are awesome! I made these one evening and was tired,so I didn't feel like making cream cheese frosting. I used a can of vanilla frosting that I had on hand. They would most definitely be better with cream cheese frosting. Will make these again for sure.

PERFECT! I used two overripe bananas and used Cream Cheese Frosting 2 from this site. It was awesome, thanks!

Great way to get rid of all those bananas. Picky kids loved it too. Definitely go with the homemade cream cheese frosting. Awesome recipe. Thanks.

My kids ADORE this recipe! Seriously - my 11-year old actually pants when I pull it out of the fridge. I will say that using homemade cream cheese icing is part of it - such an easy thing to do, but such a difference in taste (and I did scale back to just under 1 c. of sugar in the bars), but this is an unusual (we're so used to banana BREAD,) quick, no fail, feeds-a-ton-of-people recipe and one that validates my investment in a jellyroll pan after all these years! (FYI for me, personally as of 8/5- don't try with 4 bananas 3 works best. Four made it too dense, less cake-like. I make this at least once a month - love it!)

Very good. I put mine in a 13x9 cake pan and increased the baking time. My family would much rather have this than banana bread with or with out the frosting.

fantastic!! the only thing i changed was the frosting - i made my own cream cheese frosting. but the recipe is absolutely delicious and addicting. the only thing i will change next time is decreasing the sugar to 3/4c. or 1 c. it didnt seem like too much sugar, but i know it's not all necessary, esp. with the frosting. thanks so much for the recipe!

Delicious! I used a 9x13 pan, so it turned out more as cake than bars, but I am not complaining. The cake tastes amazing, and it's so easy! I'll definitely make this again, and perhaps experiment with some spices.

These were really good and super easy to make. They were a little more "cake-like" than I expected, even though I used the 10x15 jelly roll pan. I guess I was expecting something a little more dense. They were good though, light and fluffy. I used three ripe bananas and I thought it was the perfect amount of banana flavor. I used my own cream cheese frosting recipe (1 stick of butter, 3 oz cream cheese, 2 tsp. vanilla, and 2 cups powdered sugar), and thought it was the perfect complement to these yummy bars. Like one of the other reviewers stated, it's a great way to use up your over-ripe bananas without making your standard banana bread. I will make these again, for sure! Thanks for the recipe. **Update** After putting these in the refrigerator, they were more of what I was after...a little more dense and even more flavorful. Yummy with a cold glass of milk.

We are doing weight watchers, so I totally changed this to be much lower in fat and calories and it still turned out great! Instead of 1/2 cup of butter, I used 1/4 margarine plus 1/3 cup applesauce; substituted splenda for 1/2 the sugar; added an additional 1/4 cup of flour; and used 3 ripe bananas. No frosting for us, but these were still moist, delicious, and plenty indulgent! I made them into mini-muffins (baked 350F for 15 mins), and you get 2 for 1 point! YUM!

i made the whole recipe correct and baked it 10 minutes extra in the oven because they weren't baked enough. i took them out thinking they'd be done enough but i just cut one and it was not. i don't know how the rest of you got yours to turn out.

VERY GOOD! I made these for breakfast for my 3 young(18 mo, 18 mo and 28 mo)children and they loved it. I decreased the sugar to 3/4 cup and used fatfree sour cream. Cooked in a 9 x 13 for 30 min and drizzled icing over them (1 T ff cream chz, 1/2 T milk and 3 T powered sugar). They were good!!

Oh. My. Stars. Absolutely, incredibly good. The only changes I made were cutting the sugar to just under a cup and adding chopped walnuts. Made into cupcakes (Yield: 24 full size and 9 mini muffins). Baked at 350 for 18 minutes. (13 for the mini's) Though they didn't need frosting, I wanted to try Jewel's maple take on the cream cheese frosting. Used 3 Tbs Pure Maple syrup (didn't have any extract), and topped with a walnut.

This recipe is great! Very easy and very tasty. I followed the recipe to a "T" with the exception of baking it in a bunt pan (baking for about 40 minutes). Turned out great and my family loved it! I think it is sweet enough without the frosty, but my husband says 'no way'!

I made these bars and took them to work (after sampling them at home of course), and they were wonderful! I followed the recipe exactly, and used canned cream cheese frosting, and loved them. This is a keeper. Thanks!
