Recipe Introduction
From: Fanny Farmer Baking Book - Marion Cunningham
List of Ingredients
This makes a dark, dense, sweet banana bread. This is just the best.
2 1/2 C flour
1 t salt
2 t baking soda
1 C shortening
2 C sugar
4 eggs slightly beaten
2 C mashed ripe bananas (about 6 medium-size bananas)
optional: 1 C chopped walnuts
Recipe
Preheat oven to 350. Grease and flour loaf pan (or I use a bundt pan).
Stir and toss together the flour, salt, and baking soda. In a large bowl, mix the shortening, sugar, mashed bananas, eggs, and walnuts. Add the combined dry ingredients and stir just until the batter in throughly blended.
(I use a mixer to blend the ingredients because I find the ingredients don't blend well by hand. About 1-2 minutes medium by electric mixer)
Pour into the prepared pan and bake for about 65-70 minutes or until a skewer inserted in the center of the bread comes out clean. Remove from the oven, and let cool in the pan for about 5 minutes, then turn out in a rack to cool completely.
Notes:
Try this with fudge or chocolate frosting - it is to just too good for words. I use this as a cake recipe as well.
I've also added chocolate chips ( 1/2 - 1 C) but its almost too much.
