Adding chopped dark chocolate would make this top-notch 😋🤤

Amazing Video and superb cooking recipe. I truly love the colorful set up, Awesome.

In case anyone is wondering, the background music is "This Is Clearly Not 'Skating' From A Charlie Brown Christmas" by Hince Fuaraldi :D

(for legal reasons, the above is a joke)

[natalieharris]

The music is giving me Schroeder 🎹 from Charlie Brown ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️💯.

Love that this is defaulted to non dairy! Can't wait to make this.

[familyvargas]

This looks wonderful, but I do have two questions. 1st?; is that a Henckels fry pan used to glaze bananas 🍌? 2nd?; can we swap vegan for non-vegan?

[Exiled_Rouge]

Was there a specific reason why the recipe stated the need for vegan ingredients in the video?

[BIgDaddyJ]

This sounds fantastic! However, can you swap out the soy milk for buttermilk?

[jaaaaannnnee]

Ooooo yes! Also yay vegan!!! I can't wait to try this.

[candyjustcandy]

Could I use the same amount of whole milk and real butter? I would love to make this.

[skfart]

whats a unique name of your channel like and love your all recipe 🏅🇵🇰🏅

[blatinobear]

Very nice, perhaps could use more bananas for moisture as it looked a bit dry, or some other neutral ingredient like apple or finely chopped raisins?

[houngandave]

for those who want to use dairy, buttermilk is traditional in banana bread, and you'll get a moister end product.

[buzzman]

So make bananas foster and put it in your bread. 👍

[jamesshoemaker]

Since the title doesn't state it's a vegan recipe, it might be worth adding whether or not regular milk and butter work in this recipe's description. Even if they aren't being used in the video. I'm betting a lot of people that stumble on this aren't going to have soy milk or vegan butter on hand. Also not having vegan in the title seems odd since people looking for vegan banana bread seems like this recipes target audience.

[gregthequeen]

can i use 'salted' butter and 2% milk?

[jhowardsupporter]

I think overripe bananas would work well here too.

[Duschbag]

I'm thinking of trading the Maple Syrup for Spiced Rum and call it Bananas 🍌 Fosters Bread... 🤔

the fake charlie brown soundtrack is SENDING ME.
