The aroma completely fills the house, and tantalizes the sense of smell.
As "Martha" would say..."It's A Good Thing".
Banana Nut Bread
1/2 cups of flour
1 tsp baking soda
1 tsp baking powder
Pinch of salt
4 mashed ripe bananas
1/4 c softened butter
1 cup sugar
1 egg
2 T buttermilk 1 tsp vanilla 1/2 cup chopped pecans
Make the Banana Bread
The best banana bread is made with very ripe bananas that are easily mashed.
Preheat the oven to 350°F.
Grease and flour a 9x5" loaf pan.
Sift or whisk together the flour, baking soda, baking powder and salt.
Cream together the butter and sugar.
Add the bananas, eggs, vanilla and milk to the sugar mixture.
Add pecan pieces.
Gradually stir in the flour mixture.
Pour the batter into your prepared loaf pan.
Bake at 350° for about an 45- 55 minutes, or until a toothpick stuck into the center of the loaf comes out clean.

Hi Jo, AND--as you know, the riper the bananas, the more flavor they provide.... I love banana bread. I also love pumpkin bread in the fall... YUM!!!!

Oh, yum!! The "boys" in my family love banana bread. Thanks for sharing your recipe.
That looks like a super recipe Jo, I could do with a slice right now. All I need is the buttermilk, think I will be popping up to the grocery in the morning :)
Thanks for a timely reminder of what I can do with my two over ripe banana's behind me here!
Jo, let me tell you the only thing better than banana bread. When I was staying at The Del recently, they had taken a banana bread and put in into large muffin tins filled with pecans and caramel. They called them banana caramel sticky buns and they were just to die for. I am planning to try and replicate them.
I am absolutely loving your posts . . every one a gem! I'm off into the kitchen right now . . I have a few over ripe bananas and guess what I'm going to do with them!!!
I love banana bread. It's so yummy in my tummy!
Nothing better than warm banana bread straight out of the oven and a tall glass of cold milk. :) Thanks for sharing this recipe!
