3 c. flour 1 tsp. soda 1 tsp. each - cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg 2 c. sugar 1 tsp. salt 1 c. nuts (optional)
3 eggs 1 1/2 c. salad oil 1 (8 oz.) can crushed pineapple, undrained 1 1/2 tsp. vanilla 2 c. mashed bananas
Sift dry ingredients, add remaining ingredients. Stir with a wooden spoon only until well blended. Pour into two greased loaf pans and bake at 350°F for 60-80 minutes.
I toasted the walnuts a bit before adding and also added coconut flakes, it came out great. Thanks for the recipe, I will be using it all the time!

Thank you so much for the recipe. I didn't change a thing and it's the best banana bread I've ever made. Absolutely scrumptious! Other recipes have always been dry. This is definitely a keeper.

Very good. The only thing is I reduced the oil to 1/2 cup. I never used alot of oil. It made 3 small loaves. Very good.

Excellent...moist and flavorful. Next time, however, I will reduce amount of oil. Made a lovely hostess gift for last night's dinner party.

I absolutely love this recipe! I added 1 cup of oatmeal and 1/2 cup of craisins to this recipe. Get compliments all the time! My daughter hates banana bread and loves this recipe! Great to serve anytime of the day.

This is a wonderful recipe! I had never made banana bread before and didn't want to waste a bunch of over-ripe ones that I had. I was worried about including them in a bad recipe and wasting them anyway! This was great. Very easy and 3 loaves disappeared from my home in 3 days! Thanks a million! Definitely a keeper!

Great recipe. You can replace all of the oil with unsweetened applesauce (cup for cup) to save calories and make it healthier!

First let me say I loved the aroma that filled the house from this bread. I've just taken my loaves out the oven and they not only look great but taste great as well. Truth be told I couldn't wait for them to cool properly but I can assure you I will be having a slice (properly cooled) for breakfast in the morning. Thanks for a great MOIST recipe at last!!

I used half the oil and backed them in a mini muffin pan. They baked in 20 minutes and my 14 month old loved them. I have made banana bread many times and this one is the best!

Phenomenal recipe. I didn't have the pineapple so I subbed in a can of cranberry sauce instead. Came out great!

I added 1c chopped pecans & 1/2c Craisins. I also substituted Xagave Nectar instead of sugar. The sugar exchange for baking is use 2/3c Xagave for every cup of sugar.

I have made this bread several times now, following the recipe as is (using nuts) and it's the BEST banana nut bread ever! I think I've tried everything in the past to get a moist bread, and no matter what, I was disappointed. Not with this recipe! Thanks!

I'm sure these breads are delicious, but with all the combinations of fruit in them, they might better be called fruit bread, don't you think? I prefer my banana bread with bananas only, no vanilla and NO other spices. Try it, it's delicious. The flavor of bananas truly shines through, that is what we want, isn't it?

This is the best banana bread recipe I've ever tasted. I shared it with family members and they love it, however I excluded the nuts and pineapples. I substituted the salad oil with canola oil and the ginger with nutmeg. It was gone in two days.
