Love buffalo wings? Get that same hot, zippy flavor in everything from deviled eggs to enchiladas. And of course: wings.

Like Guest Foodie, I too got this recipe in the mail. My family and friends have enjoyed this banana bread for many years. I went to get my card out and couldn't find it. I was so excited when I found it here! The BEST BANANA BREAD EVER!!!

If you like banana bread you have to try this recipe! I've usually been underwhelmed by quick breads. I can take them or leave them. But this recipe was outstanding. I ate WAY more than my share!

I love this recipe and have many loaves of banana bread. I wanted to make muffins though, so I made the recipe as directed and baked in muffin tins for only 20 minutes. They were beautiful and delicious. It made just under 2 dozen.

I am glad Nana has a banana bread recipe. It is one of the best Banana Bread recipes I have ever found. Great texture and very moist, this recipe is now our favorite, both at home and to give away. For me, the most important thing is consistent results, batch after batch, and i get that with this recipe. Enjoy!
