Banana Bread

Holiday baking is starting at our house today. I was given the recipe below from my friend, Jennifer Brands, and it was given to her by her grandmother. Compare it to your recipe and see what difference there is. I like the texture of this banana bread better than other recipes I've tried. (The loaf below has a few blueberries added which are not included in the written recipe). Our house smells of baking, and we have a beautiful moist loaf of bread to enjoy through the next week! Banana Bread

1 cup sugar

2 cups flour

1 tsp. soda

1 tsp baking powder

1/2 cup butter

2 eggs

2 tablespoons milk

3 ripe bananas

nuts if desired

Mix and sift dry ingredients. Add eggs milk and melted butter. Add mashed bananas. Bake at 325 degrees for one hour or longer. Yum!!

Many years ago, when Willow and I were in high school, we use to eat banana bread and butter sandwiches for lunch. We thought our lunches were a bit better than what others had to eat!

I always think of that tidbit when baking banana bread! :)
