3 Bananas, very ripe 2 C Flour
1 C Sugar 1 t Baking soda
1/2 C Shortening (butter) 1 C Walnuts, chopped
2 Eggs Rum, vanilla, or amaretto
3 T Yoghurt or sour cream -(optional)

the bananas. Mix in the remaining ingredients. Pour into a greased loaf
pan. Bake 1 hour 15-20 minutes at 350 degrees F.
NOTES:
* This recipe is from my friend Ayalla — It makes a heavy, but moist,
loaf of banana bread.
* If you use more than 3 normal-size bananas, I suggest that you lower the
oven temperature and cook for a while longer. Otherwise, the crust comes
out almost overcooked while the middle remains moist and almost
undercooked.
: Difficulty: easy.
: Time: Preparation: 10 minutes; baking: at least 95 minutes. Allow
some time for cooling.
: Precision: Approximate measurement OK.
