This is a recipe I got from Paula Dean's book "Kitchen Classics". This book has lots of great recipes in it. I've tried several of them. This one is delicious!! Although at the time I didn't have any buttermilk. So went looking on the internet for substitutes and found this place called Recipe Zaar they had a great one. This is how you can substitute buttermilk: 1 Cup of Milk, 1 Tablespoon of lemon juice or vinegar. Combine ingredients and let stand 5 minutes. After 5 minutes, mix together well and use as buttermilk in any recipe!

BANANA NUT BREAD

½ teaspoon Baking Soda
1 C. Sugar

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Cream shortening and sugar. Sift together flour, salt, baking powder, and baking soda and add to creamed mixture. Add remaining ingredients; mix well. Pour into a well-greased loaf pan. Bake for 40 to 45 minutes.
OH my gosh, my kids will tell you : What's mom's favorite flavoring, for candy or muffins or ice cream or ANYthing....?? BANANA!
ReplyDeleteHowever, I seem to fail at actual banana bread, I always make muffins so they cook in the middle!? I don't know what my problem is??
mmm....i have a few rotten, er ripe bananas that need to be used! Looks like easy deliciousness!
