This is a wonderful bread; I baked the full recipe in a standard meatloaf pan for 55 minutes and it was moist and delicious. Next time, I will carmelize the pecans before baking them in the bread for a taste of pralines!

This was delicious and super easy to make. I added small amounts of vanilla and cinnamon, and I used half brown sugar, and half white sugar. I think that it would have been just as good without the modifications. I made muffins instead of one loaf of bread, and my children inhaled them.

I adjusted the recipe for 1 loaf and used regular size muffin tins sprayed with Bakers Joy (oil and flour). I used 2 large very ripe bananas and adjusted the cook time to 30 minutes. THESE MUFFINS WERE AWESOME! I made it twice; one with nuts; one without and they both came out good:)

I used half brown sugar and half white. I also used self rising flour ,so I didn't use baking powder,baking soda,or salt. I added 2 tsp of cinnamon, 1/2 tbs of honey, and about 2 tsp of vanilla. It turned out amazing! It was super moist and had so much flavor.

I Added Cinnamon and vanilla and chocolate chips!

The first time I made it using glass loaf pans. One pan was larger and I put more in it than the other one. Because they were glass, I think they took longer to bake, but the sides and bottoms were all crunchy. I made a frosting with powdered sugar, butter, pinch of salt, vanilla and a little milk. I stirred that around and poured it over the cake like a glaze. And it got raves! The crunchiness around the outside of it just made it it was like it had carameled. I forgot to tell you that I substituted half of the sugar for brown sugar.
