Heritage Recipes






List of Ingredients



• 1/2 cup chopped nuts
  
• 1 cup mashed bananas (2 medium)
  
• 1 1/2 cups sifted flour
  
• 1 teaspoon baking soda
  
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
  
• 1/2 cup soft butter
  
• 1 cup sugar
  
• 2 eggs
  
• 1/2 cup sour cream or buttermilk
  
• 1 teaspoon vanilla
  






Instructions



1. Sift together flour, soda, salt and set aside. In a separate bowl, cream butter and sugar. To this butter mixture add egg, the vanilla, and the flour mixture. Stir it all up, then add the bananas, sour cream, and nuts. If you use one big bread pan bake for one hour at 350. If you use smaller pans, then bake 350 for 20 to 25 minutes.
   
   
2. Note: don’t use overly ripe bananas. It took me a long time to learn this. Just soft enough to mash effectively will work best (no old yukky ones). Also, I use the buttermilk, not the sour cream, and I also use walnuts (the more the better.)
