"My family absolutely loves when I make this! It looks complicated, but it's really not. I got this out of a Paula Deen magazine. Just a few hints...I use flexible cookware when I bake and the first time I made this I had to use 3 regular sized loaf pans. The next time I used two flexible bunt pans it turned out great! The reason I love this recipe is it uses brown sugar instead of white. I don't know for sure how many servings this makes, all I know is that it will feed my brood and then some. **Note: I have substituted Splenda Brown Sugar and light sour cream as well; it still turns out fantastic! Please let me know what you think!"

Original is 12-15 servings

I think this is one heck of a yummy Banana Bread! I made it for Christmas day to bring to my moms house and everyone there thought it was great. We spread whipped cream cheese on ours. I came home with only 2 slices left, and I was happy because I had a chance to have them for snacks!
