Banana Bread (Yeast Risen) image

I got this recipe sometime back from a Fleischmann's yeast package, and I have been making this bread ever since. If you enjoy working with yeast, then this is one that you should try, this bread is really good! Prep time includes rising time.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my bread turned out dry and crumbly. Maybe I didn't use enough bananas?

This is the best banana bread I've ever had. I've already made it twice this week and I'm planning on making it again tomorrow.

Not bad, but not great either. I think I'll try a different recipe next time.

This banana bread is so moist and flavorful. I love the hint of cinnamon and nutmeg. It's the perfect treat for breakfast or snack.

This is my new favorite banana bread recipe. It's so moist and flavorful. I love the addition of yeast, it really makes a difference.

Not a fan. The bread was too dense and the flavor was bland. I won't be making this again.

Easy to make and delicious. I've made it several times now and it's always been a hit at potlucks.

Yum! Just made this bread last night and it turned out great. The only thing I did differently was use chocolate chips instead of walnuts. So good!

This banana bread is a game-changer! The yeast gives it a light and fluffy texture that is out of this world. I've made it twice now and it's been a hit both times.
