This tasted amazing. I made this banana bread twice already, even though I had trouble cutting the banana bread, it tasted very delicious. I made it today using a muffin pan, it came out great and it was easy to cut the muffins in this size. From ...more

Excellent!
Used honey instead of sugar, 1.5% fat sourmilk (like ruuny yogurt), subbed 1/2 rolled oats out of total whole wheat flour. Skipped the dates. Baked 2 nice loaves (40 mins at 175 C) one to freeze, one to eat... will be gone by tonight...morelingourmet in loved it
