"This is a wonderful way to use up overripe banana's. I think the un iced cake would freeze really well, although I have not tried it freezing it as yet. The icing is very sweet, so you may prefer to not ice the cake, but we loved it iced here."

Great banana bread and it makes a lot! I made one small loaf and 3 mini/individual loaves -- that way we were able to freeze some and have some for breakfast. I skipped the icing but otherwise made as directed. Thanks for sharing!
