As long as you don’t turn the oven off in the middle of baking, this will be some awesome banana bread! I promise.

Ingredients:

• 3 or 4 smashed ripe bananas
• 1/3 cup melted butter
• 3/4 cup of sugar
• 1 beaten egg
• 1 tsp vanilla
• 1 tsp baking soda
• pinch of salt
• 1 1/2 cups of all purpose flour
• 1/4 cup of chopped walnuts (optional)
• 1/4 cup of semi sweet baking chocolate (optional)

Method:

1. preheat oven to 350°
2. use wooden spoon to mix butter into bananas
3. mix in sugar, egg and vanilla
4. sprinkle in baking soda and salt, then mix
5. add flour last
6. pour into 4in x 8in loaf pan
7. bake for 1 hour
8. cool on rack, remove, slice and serve

So, for some reason I only have 5in x 9in pans. I use one of those and bake for about 1 hr and 20 mins. I poke a shish kabob skewer in the middle and see if it comes out clean. When it does, it is ready.

Bon appetite!
