Omitted the garlic salt (too much salt in the soy sauce anyway), used about a tsp of minced garlic and used medium amber maple syrup to be exact and wow is this good. I love how everything beautifully plays off of each other. The soy sauce, the garlic, the maple. You can taste it all. I'm not usually one for sweet dishes but I love this. It's not super sweet but a bit mildly sweet instead. So unless someone just hates anything sweet they'd probably like this. Definitely something I will be making again and again.

Delicious. I didn't find them to be heavy or too plain. If you don't sift the flour, sift it then measure it. It should make it lighter. I didn't use molasses or oil in these. Instead I used honey and applesauce. All I had was extra thick rolled oats so I threw them into the blender to cut them up a bit that way they were finer. Love how nutritious these are. Topped them with a few puréed strawberries even though they're perfectly fine plain. Will try adding cinnamon and vanilla next time as I think that would make them even more yummy.

This is the best banana bread ever! If you love bananas you'll love this. The bread is very moist and has this strong banana flavour that I just can't resist. Made some changes though after we first made it (following the recipe exactly, of course). 1) used applesauce in place of the butter and 2) cut the sugar to 1/2 cup. It was really sweet the first time. A bit too much for me. Now it's just right. Still sweet but this is after all a sweet bread. =P Will try it with whole wheat flour next time and update with how that went.
