Banana Bread

Jamie wants my banana bread recipe- so I figure why not share it far and wide! I'll blog it!

Banana Nut Bread
1/2 c. butter or margarine
1 c. sugar
2 eggs
2 cups flour!
1 tsp. baking soda
1/2 tsp. salt
3 large mashed bananas (overripe is best)
1 c. chopped nuts (I use walnuts)

1 Tbsp melted butter
TOPPING: 1 tsp. cinnamon mixed with 1 Tbsp sugar

Preheat oven to 350
Grease a loaf pan, and sprinkle with 1 Tbsp. flour.
Cream butter and sugar. Beat in eggs, one at a time. Mix in sifted dry ingredients. Beat in mashed bananas. Add nuts. Pour into prepared loaf pan. Bake at 350 for 50-60 minutes (or 65!-test with a toothpick, sometimes stays gooey in the middle). While cake is still warm pour melted butter over top and sprinkle with the cinnamon sugar mixture.

Old fashioned comfort food! Enjoy!

you may want to fix it, and add the 2 cups of flour to the recipe. :) it is a little important to the final outcome.
