1 c. sugar
1/3 c. shortening
2 eggs
1 3/4 c. flour
2 t. baking powder
1/2 c. nuts, optional
1 t. vanilla
1/4 t. salt
Cream shortening, sugar, and eggs. Sift dry ingredients and slowly to egg mixture. Stir in the mashed bananas. Put in greased loaf pan. Bake at 350 degrees for about 1 hour. Makes 1 loaf.
Recipe notes: Can substitute other fruit for bananas. Cranberry sauce is good (reduce sugar to 1/2 cup). Pumpkin is also good (add 2 t. cinnamon, ½ t. cloves, ½ t. allspice, 1 T. molasses).
