Banana Bread

I made this recipe for my classmates on the last day of class and it was gone in about two minutes. I don't even think everyone got some. It was delicious and super easy.

Banana Nut Bread

• 1 cup sugar
  


• 1/2 cup shortening
  


• 2 eggs
  


• 2 cups flour
  


• 1/2 cup chopped walnuts
  


• 1 teaspoon baking soda
  


• 3 soft, ripe bananas, mashed
  

Cream sugar and shortening; add eggs, flour, soda, bananas, and chopped nuts. Pour banana bread batter into 1 greased and floured loaf pan. I took some extra sugar and nuts and sprinkled them on top before putting it in the oven. Bake at 325° for about 1 hour and 15 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. This banana nut bread recipe makes 1 loaf.
