Basic Banana Bread


Here's a simple but delicious recipe for banana bread. It is a four and a half star recipe from allrecipes.com. I love that the recipe is so simple yet the result is full of flavor and very moist. It's a keeper. Oh, and a lot of reviewers (me included) added a dash of cinnamon and put in half brown sugar and half white sugar.

Basic Banana Bread
1/2 c. butter, softened
1 c. white sugar
2 eggs
1 1/2 c. mashed banana (I used 3)
2 c. flour
1 tsp. baking soda

DIRECTIONS

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease and flour one 9x5 inch pan.

Cream margarine and sugar until smooth. Beat in eggs, then bananas. Add flour and soda, stirring just until combined.

Pour into prepared pan and bake at 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) for about 1 hour (or till toothpick comes out clean). Remove from pan and let cool, store in refrigerator or freeze.
