1/2 tsp
1 tsp
1 tsp
1 1/2 tsp
3 c
1/2 - 1 c
shortening... ( I use butter flavored)
sugar
eggs well beaten
very ripe bananas
salt
baking soda dissolved in 1 c of hot water
baking powder
cinnamon or a couple tablespoons or more like I do *
flour
walnuts, broken but not crushed (leave them fairly whole) **

Procedure:

  1. Preheat oven to 325ºF.
  2. I mix everything together putting the nuts in last
  3. Pour into 2 loaf pans
  4. Bake till a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
I always make a double batch so I end up with 3 loaf pans about half full then I have 7 mini loaf pans they are about the size of a baking potato and I fill them about 3/4. I only have 3 loaf pans......lol
