After eating the delicious muffins at Panera, I got to wondering what they do to make them so moist. And I remembered a commercial I had seen once for a chocolate cake made with Miracle Whip, and it sounded like a plausible solution. So I just added some in, and it's never been the same since. Recently, we had mayonnaise in the fridge instead of Miracle Whip. The moistness still turned out great, but I didn't like the flavor as well. I just add it in extra.

Do you sub it for something or just add it in as an extra? Interesting! Do you sub it for something or just add it in as an extra?

It is incredible -- it makes it so moist, with just a hint of a satisfying tang to it. The first time I did that, my friends raved about how good it was until I told them what the secret ingredient was. :) They thought that it sounded strange, but they sure were excited about gobbling it all up! Now I won't even consider making my banana bread without a dollop of Miracle Whip. It's worth trying!

BTW I've been seeing your pumpkin cake around, and I can't wait to try it! <strong>Chessa</strong>: Exactly! No mess and easy, but weird, weird texture. Banana bread is the perfect solution. :) RobinSue Thanks! BTW I’ve been seeing your pumpkin cake around, and I can’t wait to try it!

I don't really like the consistency of bananas either but I know they are good for me so I make myself eat them. When I was studying for the bar exam there was a fruit stand in front of the building where I took my review class. All the fruits looked so delish but I always bought bananas bc they are no-mess and there's not fear of having to wash them before class. I ate SO many bananas and I barely enjoyed them! having said that, banana bread is one of my faves. Thanks for the recipe! I’m so glad you are feeling better!
