Everett is at camp.
Vivian is so sad.
I have some bananas screaming at me to do something with me.
So, we bake banana bread. The browner, squishier bananas the better. My go to recipe for banana bread is out of my childhood church cookbook. It is my go to cookbook for about anything. Karin Wessel shared the best banana bread recipe you will ever have! This is the only recipe I will use when it comes to banana bread. (How many times have I said banana?)
Banana Bread
1/2 cup shortening
2 eggs
2 cup flour
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1 cup sugar
3 smashed bananas
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup chopped walnutsaq
Cream shortening, eggs, and sugar.
Then add bananas; then add flour, soda and salt; finally add nuts.
(depending on my mood or if I have any I will add chocolate chips)
I use to small loaf pans but you can use one 5 1/2×9 inch pan.
Grease and flour pans.
Bake large pan for 1 hour 25 mins at 350.
2 small pans bake 50-60 mins at 350 degrees.
