I have been looking for that perfect banana bread recipe for a long time now… but my search is over! This bread is amazingly flavorful and moist. I took it to work, and my coworkers raved about it and ate every crumb in an alarmingly short time. Thanks for the awesome recipe!

This is the absolute best banana bread, hands down. It’s so moist you can leave it out, uncovered, and it doesn’t dry out.

I usually do a double batch because one doesn’t last long enough. I decrease the sugar to 1.5 cups and add three bananas instead of two. I don’t recall why I do that, I just always have.

I won 1st place at our country fair using this recipe!
