    *Notes*

    *I only used 2 bananas
    *Only took about 45 minutes to cook in my oven
    *I added a few tbs of milk because the batter was too dry after putting the flour mix in with the yogurt mix
    *Freezes very well - wrap tighly in saran wrap and then cover with tin foil.
    *Walnuts are a good addition
    *You can use Smart Balance rather than ICBINB
    *Comes out well if you use muffin cups rather than a loaf pan.

    Oh yeah, and.. IT'S DELISH.
