This is wonderful! My whole family loved it! My boys polished off one loaf while it was still warm from the oven. This is my new favorite banana bread recipe.

This is my go-to banana bread recipe now. I usually can get 3 small loaves out of it. I make one just as stated above, one I add a tsp of chocolate, and the last some nuts. Soooo yummy!

This was pretty good…I left off the topping to cut a few calories and used greek yogurt instead of sour cream. My only problem was that I think my loaf pan must have been bigger than the author’s since the size wasn’t specified…I could have probably fit the whole recipe in one loaf (either that or mine didn’t rise like it should). As a result, mine only really needed 35-40 minutes…my first loaf (I only had one pan) was a little overdone/dark.

This banana bread is ridiculous – as in crazy good ridiculous! Who are we kidding? This is the BEST banana bread recipe around! My husband says it is now his favorite baked good of mine, so thank you for sharing and making me look like a star! Next time I think I will try making it without the streusel (as I thought it was sweet enough) and maybe adding in some nuts! Mmmm!

Very moist but way too much cinnamon—it overpowers the banana. Will try this again with half the nutmeg and cinnamon and no topping.

This banana bread is awesome! I added a half cup of chopped pecans and some lemon zest to the batter and it still turned out great. This will be my go-to banana bread recipe – thanks for sharing!

Did you use 2 regular size bread pans? I wish people would put the size pans they use.

This was by far the BEST recipe for banana bread I have ever made! I did health-ify it a bit (used 3/4. c agave instead of sugar, a mix of white whole wheat and all-purpose flours, and yogurt instead of sour cream – of course I had to keep the butter, though)! I loved the cinnamon and nutmeg – it was the perfect amount. Thanks!
