I don't even bother with banana bread anymore. This is my go to recipe when we have a hankering for something banana. I use 4 bananas, a little banana flavoring, and pure vanilla. 9X13 pan, 35 mins. have also substituted 2/3c sour cream in place of buttermilk. Both ways are great! I usually frost with cream cheese frosting, but used chocolate this time. WONDERFUL!!

I've made these twice. Turned out perfect the first time, the second time, they didn't have as much flavor, so I sprinkled them with cinnamon. (obviously I did something wrong) I'm getting ready to make them again. KEEP IN MIND.... this recipe calls for LIGHT brown sugar. Dark contains more molasses. I only ever have dark on hand, so I cut t with white sugar. I also used 1.5 cups of flour and added 1/2 tsp baking powder and 1/4 tsp cloves as others recommended. I always use my silicone pan liners or parchment paper when baking. Never an issue with stuck cookies! Bottom line.... A KEEPER!! Thank you for sharing, Darlene!

EXCELLENT recipe with pabbydog's changes. I only had 8oz of cream cheese, and butter. Making it again to put on the AppleCake I just took out of the oven!
