I'm so glad to hear your recommendation. By accident I ordered the Beer Bread instead of the Pizza Mix, and now I have an acceptable way to use the beer bread mix. I have
only used it once as the package directs, and was not too excited by the results. I have over ripe bananas all too often, and them sounds like the best of two worlds, to use them as well as the Beer Bread mix.
