This is the most amazing and easy banana bread. It has been in my family for years and anytime I make it people beg for the recipe. It is so moist, sweet, and delicious. Enjoy!! —Sydney Nags

Not a bread at all, more like a cake, far too moist and sweetness overload. Will not be making this again.

This is an amazing recipe. I made it for my in-laws last week. They tend to be demanding and difficult to please. Much to my delight they loved this banana bread and had no criticism of it or me whatsoever. It has a delicious flavor, a wonderful texture and is very quick and easy to make. My new go to recipe.
