Do you like to eat bananas? I don't. I don't like the way they feel in my mouth when you chew them up. I feel the same way about cottage cheese. GROSS! Strangely enough though, I do like banana bread and banana flavored candy. Just one more of my little oddities. I bought bananas last week and put them in a paper bag to ripen. They didn't ripen fast enough so I put the apples I was going to use in hubby's apple pie in with the bananas to help ripen them faster. Did you know that apples release a gas that ripen bananas quickly? So next time you put fresh fruit in a bowl, don't put the apples next to the bananas. However, if you forget, you can always make banana bread.
Banana Bread
3 bananas, mashed
1 cup of sugar
½ cup shortening
2 eggs, beaten
2 cups of self rising flour
½ cup chopped pecans
Mix bananas, sugar, and shortening until creamy. Add eggs and mix well. Add flour and pecans. Spray a loaf pan with Baker’s Joy. Pour mixture into a loaf pan. Bake at 350 degrees for 1 hour to 1 hour 10
minutes until cake tester comes out clean.
