This is the only bread I make with my bananas. It is a hit each time! I always make sure to have blueberries and buttermilk on hand at all times.

I tried this recipe not sure of what I was going to get - To my surprise I did get a great tasting Bananaberry Bread - it was moist, the texture was just right. And since I love berries I added cranberries also - I am keeping this recipe and will be making this again. This is great for the holidays!!

This is a fantastic Banana bread recipe! I made it for my family and they loved it. I added walnuts and used Splenda blend instead of sugar and used 1 egg and 1/4c egg substitute instead of 2 eggs. I also substituted 1c of white whole wheat flour and a 1/2c hi-maize for the same amount of all-purpose flour. I have made it about 4 times now. New family favorite!
