5 Stars all the way - but I also made a few modifications: I used 1/2 of the Oil and Subbed No-Sugar Applesauce for the rest. I also added about a teaspoon of Cinnamon, and a couple dashes of Pumpkin Pie Spice. Lastly I also added about 1/4 Cup of Semisweet Chocolate Chips. Talk about GOOD! I love this recipe because its made entirely of whole wheat flour - which I always try to eat. I used Canola Oil instead of "Vegetable Oil" for the health benefit as well. I'll be making this one again!

This banana nut bread verison, with whole wheat flour turned out very moist and delicious! I made a few changes to the recipe though: 1) I omitted the nuts, and added coconut instead. 2) I added an extra ripe banana to give it more of a moist, rich, banana taste (which it did). 3) used both whole wheat flour and white flour, to even the texture/moisture of the bread. (I read on the whole-wheat flour bag I had, that the instructions on it recommended that, when making baked goods with whole-wheat, they will turn out best, if you use half whole-wheat and half white flour. This will give the baked item, a more even, perfect texture. I am so glad I did this, because my banana bread's texture/moisture was perfect! You wouldn't think the bread was made with whole-wheat, which..most of the time, tends to make them, dry and dense.) Everything else, I kept the same. The bread was so, so moist and soo good! Except for the coconut. Next time, I will leave it out. It made the bread texture feel kinda funny in my mouth, lol. Next time, I will try some semi-sweet chocolate chips, to replace the nuts. This is a wonderful recipe for a whole, wheat banana bread! My son and I love it! (My husband said it okay, but he just said that cause he's not a big fan with quick, healthy-type breads like this one. But, this banana bread was moist and tasted really good, for a healthy-version.

This banana bread is the best! I make it all the time and my family loves it, especially my mother because it has no sugar and is made with whole wheat flour.

This is great for whole wheat banana bread! Super healthy, I like others altered the recipe a bit. Used a 1/2 C. of cinnamon applesauce, added an extra banana (mine were small bananas), and then used 1/4 C. Splenda, 1/8 C honey, and 1/8 C brown sugar. I think the extra applesauce and banana made the bread more moist. It rose perfectly and tastes great!

this turned out pretty good considering it was whole wheat, but still not fabulous enough to make twice. I substituted chocolate chips for the nuts due to a nut allergy in the family.

This recipe was great. I did make some changes mentioned by others and did a few of my own. I used no suger added applesauce instead of oil, added some cinnamon, used half honey half brown sugar, threw in a tblsp of wheat germ and added about half a cup of coconut. I was impressed with the flavor and a day later they were still moist. My hubby even likes them. I will definitely continue to use this recipe.

Very good. I used applesauce-country berry/no sugar added, instead of oil & put it in a 12 muffin pan for 12-15 minutes and it was great. I also added 1/4 cup carrots. Gotta get it in for the kids!!

I made this bread today and it turned out great it is moist and fluffy. I used King Arthur whole wheat flour with the soda added to the flour and milk instead of water and used half honey and sugar and used bananas that I had frozen and thawed to room temperature. I baked it in a glass pan for 1 hr 20 minutes at 325. It didn't burn like others have talked about.

A bit on the dry side (compared to my usual, less-healthy recipe), but still tasty. I only had 1/4 c. honey and so I subbed Sorghum for the rest - although I took another reviewers suggestion and used half honey half brown sugar - or rather, half some honey and Sorghum and half brown sugar. I think it would benefit from nuts but my husband refuses to eat anything with nuts so I unfortunately almost always have to leave them out.

This bread came out very moist and delicious. I had to make a couple of changes because of a lack of ingredients. I used butter instead of vegetable oil, a combination of cashews and chocolate covered sunflower seeds instead of walnuts, and 1/4 cup each of honey and brown sugar. I also covered the bread with foil for the last 20 minutes of bake time. 55 minutes was perfect.

This bread came out moist and tasty. I put in 1 tsp cinnamon and after eating it I think that it needs some nutmeg or other spice. It's a little bland with a light banana flavor and a light sweetness from the honey and vanilla. Overall, it's good and I like that it's a healthier alternative.

Really tasty! I baked it in a water bath and baked it at 350 degrees so that I could try making it really tender like my friend's pumpkin bread. I will continue to use this recipe!

Definitely a good bread but I'm unsure that it has enough banana flavor. I used 3 bananas and the flavor did not shine through as much as I would like. Added a 1/2 cup of PB for flavor and made a "topping" of 1/2 cup pecans and 2 tbl. butter. I flipped it over and layered my two 9" "bread cakes" almost like an upside down cake. Drizzled with chocolate sauce and was tasty. Replaced oil with applesauce and used 1/4 c honey and 1/4 cup light pancake syrup. Glad I found a recipe that didn't directly use sugar! Very nice.

This was very good. I made it as listed, but I added about 3/4 c mini chocolate chips and an extra 1/c cup bananas. Came out very very moist. So moist that it falls apart when I cut it. I had to bake it for about 70 minutes and it came out nice and brown. (baked it in a glass dish at 325). Kids love it. Will be making it again. I think next time I will make it with applesauce to make it even more healthier.
