Banana Bread

When Dad would buy a box of brown bananas we would bake dozens of loaves and put them in the freezer.

1/2 cup butter or oleo

1 cup sugar

2 eggs

3 mashed bananas

2 cups bread flour

1 tsp. soda

1/4 cup chopped nuts

1/2 tsp. salt

Put butter, sugar and eggs in large mixer bowl and beat well. Add mashed bananas and 1-1/2 cup flour, beating well. Add remaining ingredients and blend with spoon.

Bake in a well-oiled loaf pan (9" x 5" x 3") at 350˚ for almost an hour.
