Mom's Famous Banana Bread

Growing up, my mom used to make this banana bread ALL the time. It as a family favorite then and still is today! I have several banana bread recipes, but this is the one I always turn to when I want the best! Today I'm sharing it with you! Aren't you lucky?!

Ingredients:
1 3/4 cup flour
2/3 cup sugar
2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/4 tsp salt
2 very ripe bananas (like brown and mushy to the point of throwing them away)
1/3 cup margarine, shortening or butter
2 tbsp milk
2 eggs
1/4 cup chopped nuts (optional)

Step One: Mix all dry ingredients.

Step Two: Add all wet ingredients except for eggs. When that is all creamed, add eggs. If using nuts, add them last.

Step Three: Pour batter into lightly greased bread pan.

Step Four: Bake at 350 degrees for 1 hour or until knife inserted in center comes out clean. Let cool about 30 minutes before slicing and eating.

Try not to eat the whole loaf in one sitting!
