Here is a Banana Nut Bread recipe I use all the time and is a hit with everyone. I even make mini loafs of this to give at Christmas time to friends and neighbors. I hope you enjoy this too! Happy Holidays!

Banana Nut Bread

2 cup sugar
1/2 cup vegetable oil
1 cup milk
2 eggs
1 tsp. baking soda
3 tsp. baking powder
3 cups flour
1 tsp. salt
1/2 cup chopped pecans or walnuts
4 ripe bananas (medium sized)

Cream together shortening and sugar in a large bowl. Add remaining ingredients and mix 3 minutes with electric mixer on slow speed. Pour into a large angel cake pan that has been well greased and floured or into mini loaf pans filling 3/4 of the way full.

Bake for 1 hour in 350 oven (Insert a knife into the middle of the loaf to check for doneness - if it comes out clean, it's ready to come out of the oven - if not, let cook awhile longer -- keeping a close eye on as not to burn.
