    Thanks!

    I replaced the oil w/peanut butter and added nuts for half the raisins. They are baking right now and the house smells wonderful.

    How did they come out with the peanut butter?

    Wow! I will have to try these. My daughter is allergic to eggs and it so so hard to find good banana bread substitutes that are egg free. Thanks for the idea!

    Great! I shaped them into bars and had one today an hour before my bikram class. It did the trick to fill me up. It made 16 bars at about 170 calories each ... I think.
