Banana Bread

This is setup a bit different. It includes the preparation with ingredients at each step.

1. Mix
• 1 cup sugar
• 2 tblsp butter
2. Add eggs to sugar, beat thoroughly
• 2 eggs
3. In a separate bowl, mix
• ½ cup sour milk

to create sour milk, add ¼ tsp vinegar

• 3 smashed bananas

I actually freeze bananas when the bananas get dark & no one wants to each them anymore. When defrosted sometimes they come out with a bit of liquid which I drain from the bananas prior to using.

4. Add bananas to sugar & eggs
5. In 3rd bowl
• 2 cups flour
• 1 tsp baking soda
6. Add flour to egg/sugar mixture

Optional: 1 cup chopped walnuts

7. Grease and lightly flour pan
8. Bake in a loaf pan for 1 hour at 325° or until a toothpick comes out clean from center

Optional: a double batch fits nicely in a 9x12" pan

Optional: makes nice cupcakes. Bake at 325° for 10 minutes or 350° for 5-8 minutes
