It was ready after 1 hr and 20 in the oven at 325. The result was moist and delicious! Will definitely make again 05 of 344 ![]() Photo by Hilary Howlett 04/07/2025 A keeper\! Great flavors Worth the effort Family favorite Easy to follow Crowd-pleaser This recipe was so easy to follow and the banana bread came out perfect and oh so moist! I didn't put any nuts in mine because of personal preference. Also I used 8in.x 4in. loaf pans & my oven tends to run hot so it cooked closer to \*350 so my 2 loafs only took an hour. Thank you Rose for a new family favorite\! 06 of 344 ![]() Photo by PeterPanMine 03/03/2025 It is very easy to bake and is great for beginner bakers\! 07 of 344 ![]() Photo by Tina Matsil 12/11/2024 Hi. It was an easy recipe to follow. I added peanut butter and a little bit of sour cream. I’ll see how it tastes when it cools down 08 of 344 ![]() Photo by Anita McCrimmon 06/07/2024 A keeper\! Great flavors Easy to follow Crowd-pleaser Worth the effort Family favorite I have used this recipe well over a decade. Made exactly as is, it IS the best ever 🍌 🍞 recipe I have found.However, depending on what's in the pantry, I may add /take away some ingredients.I use only 1/2 cup white sugar, added to dry mix, and 1/2 cup dark brown added to the wet mixture. I also use 2 1/2 to 3 🍌 sliced as coins. I am going to add some almond extract the next time as per one review.But again, made as posted, this is, in my opinion, the best ever 🍌 bread recipe.I have also made this as mini loaves. I work in the kitchen of an assisted living facility. I am often asked to make the bread for the residents. I usually make four reg size loaves, (9x 5). However, the last time, I used 16 (3x 5) bread tins. I always make 4 batches at one time. Set the Convection oven at 300. These were baked for 25 to 27 minutes. Each mini loaf made 6 or 7 slices. We served 45 ppl two slices each, with a few slices left over 09 of 344 ![]() Photo by CaGaPeach 10/23/2023 Absolutely the BEST EVER! Makes a great gift wrapped with a pretty bow and a carton of whipped cream cheese. I bake with coconut oil rather than vegetable oil. Oh, I also use close to 1 cup nuts, not half cup.Don't waste your time looking at other banana bread recipes\! 10 of 344 ![]() Photo by pattywiderman 07/10/2023 Great tasting Banana Bread. Was a little concerned because it was such a light color. I added chopped pecans and used powder buttermilk (Horror) and it turned out fine. I will be making this again and have already shared the recipe!! I ended up making muffins and small loaves. I did 1 1/2 batch. Thanks for sharing this recipe\! 1. 1 2.
