Adding pumpkin spice and more cinnamon make it a great breakfast bread to serve with coffee or tea.
Fantastic loved this banana bread it was so easy to make too.
Dried crainberries and honey work wonders for this oatmeal banana bread!
It wasn't very flavorful like I expected it to be sadly needs a lot more sugar.
I've made this recipe several times and loved it i tossed 1/4 cup of walnuts in instead of 1/3 it and turned the bread into muffins! Took way less time too :)
Tasty but I liked the vegan bread more not sure why cause I'm not even vegan but it taste different compared to this.
This tasted really good I even put some blueberries on the inside of it and a few chocolate chips does it a bunch of favors.
Healthy and delicious bread no need to change anything about it.
Not too shabby for a oatmeal bread thanks.
My cousin is allergic to cinnamon so I didn't put any instead i added vanilla sugar then some peanutbutter icecream on the top for his birthday he gobbled the whole thing up faster than a hungry hippo lol really good.
Drizzle some caramel onto the finished bread and you got yourself the perfect dessert.
My gosh this recipe is the bomb! I made a few mini loafs with it and it isn't too sweet which is exactly what I was looking for.
Great recipe so easy and affordable made it last night for me and the hubby to eat in the morning turned out perfectly.
Not sure what was easy about this it was kinda hard for me to perfect and my bread either burnt or ended up uncooked fully, any tips on what to do next time?..I really want to try this out when made to perfection.
Well done! Verified!
