Is there a smaller recipe?
Comment by Barb on 19 November 2009:
The recipe can easily be halved — I made 2/3 of it (used three pans). Used apples (cut into quite small pcs.) instead of blueberries and absolutely delicious. Trust the 300 temperature; I went w/350 and top got just a bit too done. Will make again for holidays. Would be delicious warmed w/ice cream. Spray bottom well so won’t stick. Soften, do not melt butter.

I made this recently looking for just a banana bread recipe and thought this looks good and it was soo de-lish. Prep time seemed long but worth it. I used 4 cups of blueberries so it was alot darker than the norm banana bread. Brought this into work and my co-workers LOVED it!! Made 4 big loaves….didn’t last.

Hi, not too sure but you may be using too much flour. Try to mix the dough then turn it out and knead it without using more flour so your dough will be more wet
