Ingredients
1/2 c. butter
2 c. sugar
2 eggs
2 or 3 bananas
2 c. flour
1 tsp baking soda
1/8 tsp salt
1/4 c. sour milk (milk with a little lemon juice)
1/2 c. walnuts (optional)
...
Directions
- Combine all ingredients and mix well.
- Bake in a greased and floured bread pan for 45 minutes at 350 degrees.
* Extra ripe bananas work better than yellow bananas. They are more mushy and mix better.
**This recipe makes one large loaf or four small loaves.
***For a crispier crust don't flour the pan(s), just grease.
***Baking time may need to be longer, depending on the oven. Pull the oven rack out a little bit without having to remove the bread from the oven or the bread will sink. Test the bread by inserting a butter knife into the center. If it comes out with batter on it you'll want to keep it in for longer.
