In reply to Roberta. Hi Roberta. I have not tested it with milk so can't say. However, milk is runny while yogurt and sour cream are rather thick. For that reason I think it could affect the final result and would not substitute.

Can I use milk in place of yogurt or sour cream

In reply to Sue. Hi Sue. No, there is no need to pre-soaking the poppy seeds. They will give your bread nice crunchy texture. Please do let me know what you think when you give it a go!

I have yet to try your simple and delicious bread recipe. I have a question whether we need to soak the poppy seeds. Am very keen to try soon while waiting for the bananas to be ripen soon
Thanks

I never baked a banana bread that it’s chewy , the center is moist but the crust it’s almost like eating a crusty bread . When I squeeze the slice between my fingers it bounces like it’s springy . I like the taste but I don’t care for the texture very weird . I didn’t follow the recipe maybe that’s why . I didn’t have yoghourt so I used milkademia milk with 1 table spoon of lemon juice , coconut palm sugar to replace white sugar 1 tsp baking powder , I don’t like baking soda and some comment said it didn’t rise much so I thought it would be ok ….so It’s not the recipe it’s probably all the changes I made ..good taste though .

In reply to Allison. Hi Allison. I am not sure what could have gone wrong as this bread usually doesn't collapse. The quantity of bananas could mess slightly with the ratios, but I've never seen extra large bananas, so the 1.5 cups should work fine. I've just read that a small (overfilled) baking tin can cause the bread to fall in as there is not enough space for it to rise properly (I used a 2-pound/1kg loaf tin). Hope this helps!

In reply to Ginny. I love the ingredients and the taste but mine seems to deflate after I take it out of the oven, and seems to dense. I bake it for 60 minutes, tired adding baking powder, etc but can't get it right. Any tips??

In reply to Binu. Hi Binu. Thanks so much for the feedback and also letting us know how to make it using whole wheat flour!

Hi, never made banana bread with poppy seeds. So I tried it today. Replaced apf with whole wheat flour. Added 1/6 tbsp of milk and 2 tbsp of water to make the batter. Came out well.

Real talk – I’m doing the MC Hammer dance back and forth right now because I just poppy seeds a couple days ago for another recipe. In the back of my mind, I knew I wanted to make poppy seed muffins or bread, or something. Then boom, you come along with this delicious sounding recipe helping me make up my mind on what to make. Thank you, I’m going to make me some poppy seed banana bread!

In reply to Cheryl. Hi Cheryl, I have never used gluten-free flour so I am not sure about this. However, I would give it a shot. If you try, please let me know how it turned out for you.

Could gluten-free flour be used here?

Wow! It looks so moist and absolutely yum! I love that this contains poppy seeds. I always have overripe bananas and this recipe is going on my to-do list this week. Thanks for sharing! :-)

I’m drinking my morning coffee right now. Can’t think of anything that I wouldn’t want more than a slice of this bread.

That is a gorgeous banana bread, and I love the poppy seeds in it! I was just thinking about banana bread this morning.
