Recipe: Banana Bread

They say I can make a mean banana bread.

It's no secret, really.

 This simple recipe shared from my grandmother & mother is just about as old as I am 

and has been permanently ingrained into my memory.

Ingredients:

1/2 cup of butter (or shortening..but I prefer butter. Just trust me on this one!)

1 cup sugar

2 eggs

3 or 4 very ripe bananas, mashed

2 cups flour

1 teaspoon baking soda

1/4 teaspoon salt

1 cup chopped nuts (I don't really like nuts, so I always leave them out in mine.)

Mix ingredients in order given.

Bake in greased loaf pan in 300 degrees for 1 hour or until done.

Now dig in!
