Gram's Banana Bread

Description: I know everyone has their own favorite way to make this! Here is my Gram's recipe. I decided to add it to Zaar since it is just a little different (no walnuts!); plus I won't loose it this way. She used butter flavored Crisco sticks for shortening. Updated 6/11 - I tried this out with whole wheat flour and it came out just as yummy as all purpose flour. Try it!

Ingredients:

• 1 cup sugar
• 1 1/4 cups flour
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 3/4 teaspoon baking soda
• 1/2 cup shortening
• 3/4 cup mashed banana
• 2 eggs, beaten with a fork

Steps:

1. Cream sugar & shortening.
2. Add eggs & beat.
3. Add bananas and mix.
4. Sift dry ingredients into batter, stir in with wooden spoon.
5. Spray bottom of loaf pan with Pam, then flour it. Add batter.
6. Bake at 350 (maybe a little under) for 45 minutes (maybe a little more).
