I noticed that many of the reviewers who rated this recipe quite high made significant modifications. As is the recipe is only "fair" due to unnecessary amounts of fat and sugar. Use the substitutions suggested here, and you can feel good about enjoying the same (better even) great end result!

I think it is very good other than it is really sweet i think there maybe a little too much sugar and some could be left out.

This bread was really good, but I made some changes. I replaced the shortening with 1/4 cup canola oil and 1/4 applesause and added 1 teaspoon cinnamon and 1/4 teaspoon grated nutmeg. Also cut the sugar to 1 1/4 cup - still pretty sweet; will use 1 cup sugar next time. Tastes like Fall!

Honestly one of the best banana recipes I've ever had. I wasn't sure how it would taste with the pumpkin, but it is delicious! The pumpkin doesn't overpower the banana at all.

I've made this recipe twice now and my family loves it. I made several substitutes that increased the fiber and lowered the fat and sugar. Here's the changes: I used half wheat flour and half white flour, I substituted milled flaxseed and water for one of the eggs, instead of shortening, I used 1/4 cup oil and 4 ounce of applesauce. I decreased the sugar to only one cup. I also added dried cranberries, cinnamon, and nutmeg. I doubled the recipe, using one full can of pumpkin, and made a dozen muffins and four mini loaves.

I added only 2/3 of the amount of sugar that it called for and it was still plenty sweet. I also used oil instead of shortening (and used less oil too). Definitely a great recipe to use up bananas during the Holiday season.
