Banana Nut Bread

3 ripe bananas
2 c. flour
2 eggs
1/2 c. butter
1 c. sugar
1 tsp. soda
pinch of salt
1 c. pecans

Cream butter and sugar in mixer then add eggs and mashed bananas. Mix well. Sift together flour, soda and salt. Add the dry mixture to the bananas, butter and eggs slowly and mix well. Add chopped pecans. Bake at 350 degrees for 50 minutes in greased, floured loaf pans. This bread will stay fresh for weeks when wrapped in foil. (however IMHO,...if it's not eaten in a day, there's something wrong with you...LOL!!!!) Is also freezes very well. I double this at Christmas and it will make about 6 small loaves.

Here's an idea that I have not tried yet, but...it's from a gal who recipes have always worked for me, so I'm not hesitating posting it.

SOUR CREAM BANANA BREAD - KIMBERLYK

"This is my favorite. Just made some this weekend. It makes a lot so there's enough for you to enjoy and freeze some to give away during Christmas. It is very moist and yummy!
If you don't have sour cream you can use plain yogurt."

3/4 cup butter
3 cups sugar
3 large eggs
6 very very ripe bananas
1/2 teaspoon salt
4 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
3 teaspoons baking soda
1 (16-oz) container sour cream
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
1 cup chopped nuts, optional


Preheat oven to 300 degrees. Grease four 7x3-inch loaf pans.

In large bowl, cream butter and sugar. Mix in eggs, mashed bananas, sour cream, vanilla and cinnamon. Add salt, baking soda and flour and mix well. Stir in nuts. Divide batter into prepared pans. Bake for 1 hour or until a toothpick inserted in center comes out clean.
Makes 4 7x3 inch loaves.

NOTES: The sour cream makes this bread so moist it almost melts in your mouth. Fat free sour cream works well, too! Loaves freeze well.

or, how about
