  1. grandmatrish REVIEW:

    I have made this banana bread before and love it!! I was wondering if I were to make it into muffins how long I would bake them for.

    • We haven't tested this recipe as muffins. Baking time varies greatly depending on the recipe. I would start checking them after 15 minutes but it could take up to 30 minutes.

  2. RMeri REVIEW:

    This bread turned out really well for me. The bananas I had were quite ripe so I think that helped make it very moist. I used pecans instead of walnuts. It didn't say what kind of chocolate chips to use (milk chocolate or semi sweet?) so I used semi sweet because that's what I had.

  3. lovetobake REVIEW:

    Eh. This recipe was okay. I would probably not make it again, since I like other recipes better. It tastes good, but that's all, not great. It could've been more moist as well. I also added cinnamon, which gave it a nice touch.

    Very good, easy to follow, quick recipe! KUDOS! I added cherries, to make it a black forest version. Nice size loaf!! Thanx for all who reviewed~

  6. Guest Foodie REVIEW:

    This is a really good recipe! I had only 2 bananas so I finely chopped a ripe pear and added that. Also I happened to have some grated bittersweet chocolate and finely chopped hazelnuts on hand. It turned out to be the best banana bread I have ever made!! yummy

  7. cnicholls REVIEW:

    WOW...this was so easy to make. I had my 4 year old son help and he had so much fun! I used 3/4 cup of brown sugar and 1/4 of white sugar instead and it was much better!! And topped off the banana bread with choco chips sprinkled on top as well! It was delicious and now is a favorite treat in our house!

  8. Guest Foodie REVIEW:

  9. GaVstA!! REVIEW:

    EXELLENT!!! i made this for for food technology at my school and my teacher said mine was the best!! It was easy to make too!

  10. SunshineLover REVIEW:

    One word - FABULOUS! I made this for bake sale fundraiser and it sold out right away! And several people wanted the recipe -- which is a sure sign it's a winner! It did take me 1 hour 20 minutes to bake through, but ovens are different so I would just recommend you to bake until a knife inserted in center comes out clean. FIVE SHINY SPARKLING STARS FOR THIS ONE!
