This is my family's Banana Bread recipe from my Grandma-
Ingredients: 1 3/4 Cups Flour 3/4 tsp Baking Soda 1 1/4 tsp Cream of Tartar 1/2 tsp Salt 1/3 cup shortning 2/3 cup sugar 2 eggs 1 cup mashed bananas
Sift together soda, cream of tartar, and salt. Beat shortening, stir in sugar a few tbsp at a time until fluffy. Add eggs and beat well. Add flour alternately with bananas a small amount at a time.
Bake at 350 degrees for 1 hr.
Makes 1 loaf.
Given to you as my grandmother wrote it down for me. :D
I use really really ripe bananas too. Like the ones that have so many black spots on the peel that no one will eat them. After I mash them, I give them a minute or two to brown in the air so the flavor is more bananay.
