This wonderful old banana bread recipe came from my grandma Mabel. I have never found another like it. The brown sugar gives it an incredible depth of flavor and color. We eat it spread with butter. Ingredients:
1/2 cup shortening |
1 teaspoon vanilla |
1 1/3 cups brown sugar |
2 eggs, well beaten |
2 cups flour |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
1 teaspoon baking soda |
1/4 cup soured milk (add 1 tsp vinegar) |
1 cup banana pulp (about 2 very ripe bananas roughly mashed) |
1 cup chopped walnuts |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350°F Grease 9-inch loaf pan.
2. Measure and stir together dry ingredients. Set aside. Cream shortening, vanilla, and brown sugar. Add eggs. By hand, stir in dry ingredients alternating with soured milk and banana pulp. Stir in nuts.
3. Scrape into greased loaf pan and bake 1 hour and 15 minutes or until toothpick come out clean.
4. Cool on rack for 15 minutes then turn from pan and continue cooling.
