Banana Bread

My husband loves bananas and banana bread is one of his favourites. This recipe comes from a very old recipe book and it is the only banana bread recipe I use. I just add a few pecan nuts sometimes for a different taste.

Ingredients

1/4 c butter
1 c sugar
2 eggs
4 - 6 mashed ripe bananas ( I usually use 4)
2 c cake flour
2 t baking powder
1 t vanilla essence
1/2 t salt

Method

Cream butter and sugar, add vanilla. Add eggs one by one, beating well after each addition.
Sift dry ingredients together and add to the creamed mixture.
Add mashed bananas and mix well.
Spoon the mixture into a loaf tin.
Bake at 180 degrees C for 55 min to one hour.
