Our favorite use for over-ripe bananas, a nice alternative to banana bread. It has a light lemon glaze that really compliments the spice and banana filled bars. *Note* Recipe edited per Laurie's Review suggestions for the glaze.
Ingredients:
1/2 cup shortening
1 1/2 cups sugar
2 large eggs
1/2 cup milk
3 small ripe bananas
2 cups flour
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 1/2 teaspoons cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon clove
1/2 teaspoon allspice
1 teaspoon salt
4 tablespoons butter, melted
4 teaspoons lemon juice
2 tablespoons hot water
powdered sugar
Directions:
1. Cream sugar and shortening.
2. Add the rest of the ingredients and mix well.
3. Pour into a greased 9 x 13 pan and bake at 375° for 25- 30 min or until a toothpick inserted into the middle comes out clean. Spread the glaze over the top while still hot.
4. Glaze.
5. Mix butter, water, and lemon juice well. Add enough powdered sugar to make thin glaze(a little thicker than gravy).
