I watch several youngsters each day while their parents are at work. They come running when I announce it's time to cook. This bread is one of their favorite treats to help bake and eat.—Sharon Ward, King Ferry, New York

Made this cake and as soon as it came out of the over it was finished. This recipe will be my favorite for years to come because I will be using it over and over.

This is such an easy recipe and SO good! Very moist and tasty. I have made it following the recipe exactly and also subbin 1/2 cup of butter for shortening and adding 1/2 tsp vanilla. Both are equally good.

Yum, this recipe is lovely. I made it on the weekend, but made a minor adjustment because I had a lot of bananas that were way past their prime. I microwaved 5 bananas with plastic wrap for about 5 minutes, and then poured off the juice into a sauce pan and cooked it down until it reduced to a 1/4 cup of "banana juice" and added it back into the softened bananas. Warning don't try this unless you really love the flavor of banana (which I do)!

This recipe should be rated a 5 star. It was the only banana bread recipe in my very old Better Homes and Gardens New Cook Book.

jabe1946 Many of us seldom prepare a recipe as written as we are creative and like to try something different. I very often look through related recipes and create something using something from many of them. It's just the "nature of the beast"

This banana bread is a big hit with my family. To make it lighter I used light margarine and 4 egg whites in place of the whole eggs and then added 1 tsp vanilla and my son loves choc chips so I added 1/2 cup of minis and sprinkled the top with brown sugar for a crunchy top & cinnamon and more choc chips....boy it was great!

Moist and soft. Very tasty. I added 1 tsp vanilla and 1/4 tsp cinnamon. I used parchment paper in my pan. Lift to rack, cool and serve!

I get requests every year for this bread. I also like to add either white raisins or chopped dried apricots to the bread for that extra fruity flavor. Usually just a 1/2 cup is plenty.
