Now if you are making banana bread, make sure you have a good loaf pan.

If you need a loaf pan, I highly recommend you purchase this one – I would purchase 2. I have 2, but sometimes I wish I had 4. 😉 This is a regular sized pan which is what I used. However, you can turn this recipe and make them into smaller loaves which are super fun for gift ideas.

I hope you enjoy the recipe. Remember, next time you have bananas that are about to go bad, freeze them so they are ready for some delicious banana bread! I actually will put three to four over ripe bananas in a freezer bag and label it “ready for banana bread” so it is easy even easier to thaw and have it ready for bread.

By the way, this moist banana bread recipe freezes great too! You can wrap it and place it in a freezer bag. Simply thaw on the counter when you are ready to eat.

  3. Hi, it was very easy to make and I replaced sugar with chopped up dates for my lo. The bread tastes great but is a little gooey inside. I baked it for an hour. Should I have baked it more or is it suppose to be gooey. The bananas were really ripe and I used 3 large bananas. Is there something I can do to not have it so gooey?

  5. This was delicious! I made it for a long road trip I took with my two young kids as a special treat, and it was a hit! Thanks 🙂

  7. Mine isn’t goey at all. I say cook it a bit longer – maybe add 10 minutes to your baking time.

  14. I made mine into muffins and added some cinnamon, chocolate chips and shredded zucchini. It was DELICIOUS!! 🙂

  15. I use this recipe for muffins. It’s the perfect amount for a dozen! Making two dozen today. Thanks for sharing this recipe… we love it!

  21. I have not made Banana bread from scratch but I am going to, I have been wanting some, nothing in store is good, All the recipes on here sound so good, so watch out, I am headed to the kitchen.

  5. […] Being the waste conscious person I am, I decided to make banana bread.  Holy cow was I blown away at how good they are because 1. I am a terrible cook and usually mess things up, 2. the recipe didn’t tell me how to make them muffins so I had to wing it and 3. I have low expectations for me in the kitchen.  But I was so surprised; they’re delicious!  I ate two last night and one on my way to work this morning, and how could I have a bad day when I start off on that kind of foot?  Plus they’re so easy to make.  Of course I found the recipe on Pinterest here.
