Banana bread
(from BlueFinger’s recipe box)
says SimpleDollar – I usually pull out the loaf in the evening from the freezer, then slice pieces in the morning for breakfast. I like it plain – some put butter on it and warm it up. Then just pop it back in the freezer.

Ingredients
- 2 cups (white) flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup butter
- 1 cup brown sugar
- 2 eggs, beaten
- 4 overripe bananas, mashed
Directions
-
Use a very tiny amount of the butter to grease down a 9″ by 5″ bread loaf pan.
-
Heat the oven to 350 F.
-
Mix together the butter and brown sugar (a mixer works well for this, on low), then add eggs and mashed bananas until it’s all gooey and consistent.
-
Add the rest of the ingredients, then stir just a bit more until it’s largely consistent.
-
Pour the mix in the pan, stick it in the oven for about an hour, and you’re good.
-
The ol’ toothpick test works to see if it’s done – slide in a toothpick in the middle and if it comes out clean and smooth, you’re good. Take it out, slice off some slices, and put the rest in a big Ziploc bag in the freezer.
