1 stick butter, melted in oven in mixing bowl
1 cup sugar
1 egg, well beaten
2 cups all purpose flour
1 tsp baking soda
3 large very ripe bananas, mashed
1 tsp vanilla
2/3 cup chopped pecans
Combine all ingredients in mixing bowl. Mix with wooden spoon
and pour into a well-greased 9x5x2 inch loaf pan. Bake at 375 degrees
for one hour.
Here at the Levi Hampton House, we like to freeze very ripe bananas
for our breads. We thaw them in a microwave. These bananas will give
a more intense banana flavor to the bread.
Orange Butter:
4 oz cream cheese
4 oz margarine
1 Tbsp orange juice concentrate
Zest of one orange
Soften the cream cheese with a fork. Blend in the margarine. Add the
orange juice and zest till well blended. Chill. Serve with
warm banana nut bread.
This orange butter is a wonderful compliment to the banana nut bread.
It is truly a favorite with our guests.
