  1. Delicious banana bread. The one I made in the 8in pan came out perfect. It was moist on the inside and a little crunchy on the outside. The 9in pan I left in longer as the instructions state (I have a Betty Crocker cookbook and it says to do the same thing), but that one came out a little overdone and burnt on the bottom, so I think I'll tun the heat off and place it on a higher rack for the last 15 minutes.
     
  2. This only got an ok from my lot. Sorry about that, although it could be possible that my bananas weren't ripe enough as they were black on the ouitside but when i opened them they seemed quite edabile. Also i am not the best muffin maker and this may have something to do with it as the recipe calls for mix until just moistened. The outside was crunchy - we all loved that. I added the nuts and chocolate chips. Thanks for posting, happy cooking. Miss Pixie xx x :D
