My boss had 4 bananas on his desk... they were getting black. Last night I found this recipe, took all the ingredients in to the office (except bananas that were already there). I mixed it up at my desk, used all 4 bananas, added a tsp of cinnamon too. Poured it into my silicon bundt pan and baked in the office microwave. I dumped it out of the pan onto a large plate, poked a few holes in the top with a fork and drizzled just a tiny bit of dark maple syrup over it. It smelled amazing, and before I even got it back to my desk area 4 pieces were consumed by passers by. It is totally awesome - and unbelievable that it came from a microwave. I baked it 8.5 minutes and let it cool the 5 extra minutes in the micro... perfect. This just might be my go-to recipe for 'aging bananas'.

This was easy to prepare and absolutely delicious. I did add two teaspoons of cinnamon for extra flavor.

My banana bread came out great. I added a few ingredients to my batter. Brown sugar instead of white, and half butter and half blue bonnet, 1/4 tsp. rum, dash of cinnamon, all spice and oatmeal. I used no nuts. After it was done and cooled I put a few tbsp. of butter pecan pancake syrup on top. Boy was this delicious. The bread came out nice and moist. I forgot to put the salt but it didn't need it. I gave this a 5 star rating and will use it again. Great recipe for a microwave and I didn't have to wait an hour for it to cook in the oven.

really delish !

Brilliant EASY recipe!!! I made it in a glass casserole dish,and 8 minutes cooking was perfect for me. Love it!!!!! Nom nom nom :)

Amazing! I used wheat flour... apple cider vinegar... plain salted butter... and the rest as in the recipe... used a glass bowl... came out a bit dry....but hey! A lovely homemade bread/cake in 5 to 8 minutes... that's amazing!!! ... thanks!

Perfect! I was leery of baking in the microwave, but this recipe is a winner! I used the lemon juice & added some allspice to the flour. Only used one bowl and mixed everything as I went along, including mashing the over ripe bananas I had directly into the batter. I forgot to grease the Bundt pan, but no problem, it came right out once inverted. I made a quick drizzle icing for the top & lightly covered with sprinkles for some flair. I would make this again & again.

Cant help myself from commenting. It was too good. I used small native bananas, they were awesome. Especially my hubby liked the texture, the banana thread turns dark in colour. Thanks!

Great, turned out perfect. Love it, thanks!

I've made this numerous times and it always comes out well. The last time I put a ring of baking paper in the bottom of the Bundt pan and the top of the bread came out perfect, I.E. no deformities. Also added a bit of cinnamon. Great, easy recipe

Honestly I had my doubts about microwave cake, but since the oven I have is pretty old and cakes never rise there I thought I'd give this recipe a try. It's very easy and tastes amazing. My only change was I used some chocolate chunks instead of the walnuts :D

Had to improvise a bit based on what I had on hand. Used baking powder instead of b. soda, light brown sugar instead of reg. and didn't have nuts or Bundt pan but did have an oval Corning Ware casserole dish with glass lid. Nuked for 10 min total, let stand for 5. Interesting souffle-like consistency and quite yummy. Put some dark Maple Syrup on the second piece = even better! Would def serve at breakfast in lieu of pancakes or french toast.

Very good for a first time try. Cooked for 12 minutes on high (800) and still not quite done. Remember that it cooks from center outward, unlike in conventional oven, so test for doneness at edges, not in center. (remembered that after the fact unfortunately) Also stuck a bit to bottom of pan. Perhaps a dusting with flour? Will definitely become my standard banana bread making method.

First try, came out GREAT!!! I was surprised..

I tried this today and it came out rather nice. The top was a bit deformed, though, because it inflated inside the microwave.

And I would definitely recommend using really, really ripe bananas because those are sweeter. The banana taste in mine was very subtle because I didn't use overripe bananas, but you can still tell it was a banana bread. ^^

I also kinda overcooked mine a bit - the outside of the bread became a little too dry.

But, I am very satisfied with this recipe. I'll definitely be making this next time and I hope it'll turn out better than my first try.
