I've made this 3 times in a week...after reading some of the other reviews, I cut oil to 1/4 c and used 1/4 applesauce. I also cut sugar back to 1 cup and never missed the 1/2 cup of sugar! Today's loaf came out delicious!

I have made this bread for years. I found the recipe in Taste of Home magazine several years ago. I bring the banana bread to all family gathering. The little ones just love it. Most are from out of state so I make extra so they can take home. It is the best ever recipe for making banana bread.

This is much easier than most banana bread recipes because no mixer is needed. My husband thinks it's the best I ever made. I made 2 thinner loaves so it would bake more quickly, and that worked very well.

I will never have to look for another banana bread recipe again. This banana bread is so moist; the top didn't even crack. The only change I made was that I used brown sugar instead of white. I may substitute chocolate chips for the nuts the next time I make it. The ladies I work with loved it.

I have made many, many banana bread recipes over the years. I will never make another recipe again -- this is the winner! I ran out of oil last time I made it so I put in 1/4 cup oil (instead of the 1/2) and then also added 1/4 cup applesauce...turned out perfectly. highly, highly recommend this recipe

This was even better than my grandmother's recipe (God rest her soul). It was very moist and I love the buttermilk addition. I used dried buttermilk since I didn't have fresh. I added the dried buttermilk to the dry ingredients and included the liquid in the eggs, banana, oil and vanilla step.

This tastes good but I greased the pan and the bread would not come out of pan, so I lost the entire bottom of the bread.
