Grannys Banana Nut Bread Easy Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly grease an 8x4 inch loaf pan.
• Combine sugar, butter, bananas, eggs, flour, baking soda, milk, salt and vanilla extract in a large mixing bowl; beat well. Pour batter into prepared pan.
• Bake in a preheated oven for 60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the loaf comes out clean.

Steps:

• 1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees farenheit. Using Pam, spray a loaf pan, or you can make a smaller version in a bundt pan (it's cute). Get large bowl & cream the sugar and shortening until blended well. In a small bowl, mash together the sliced up bananas & eggs. (Break the yoke if using real eggs and mix them a little before adding to the bananas). Pour the egg mixure in the sugar/shortening mix and blend well.
• 2. In medium bowl stir dry ingredients together. Stir in the flour & buttermilk alternately, to the banana mixture, until blended. Stir in desired amount of nuts. Pour into pregreased loaf (or bundt) pan & bake in preheated oven, until toothpick comes out clean.
• 3. My grandmother said to cook it 55 minutes, but I've found often it doesn't take that long. It's better to start checking it after 30 minutes, to avoid drying it out. I take it out as soon as the toothpick comes out clean, and let it cool on a thick straw coaster on the counter. After @ 15-20 minutes it'll still melt butter, so dig in and enjoy! :) You can also play around with spices or some ingreds, I added a cup of coconut & some ginger last time I made it & doubled the recipe to fill a bundt pan & it was really good, so don't be afraid to try new things, or sizes with it! The single recipe makes a cute little round breakfast type cake, in a bundt pan, to have with coffee too.
