I just made two loaves of Bananaberry Bread, and like some other reviewers, added 1 tspn vanilla, less sugar, and more blueberries (frozen). It was so delicious! The recipe said to let it cool for up to 4 hours before slicing it...hahaha, good luck waiting that long! After only 10 minutes, I sliced it. Soooo awesome!!

Heavens to Bananas!! This is absolutely delicious!!! I had more than enough for a full 9x5 pan so I made 6 short muffins to boot. The muffins are almost gone! Good thing I made those since I am saving the bread for my knitting group!
