Recipe: Banana Bread Sticks

BANANA BREAD STICKS

1 3/4 cups flour (white, whole wheat, or combo)
1 cup mashed banana
1/2 cup oil
2 eggs, beaten
1/4 cup brown sugar, packed
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Grease a loaf pan.

Place ingredients in a mixing bowl and stir together only until smooth. Pour into prepared loaf pan.

Bake at 350 degrees F for about 1 hour or until firmly set. Set bread aside to cool. Turn off oven.

When bread has cooled, preheat oven to 150 degrees F.

Remove cooled bread from pan and cut into sticks. Spread sticks out in a single layer on a cookie sheet.

Bake at 150 degrees F for one hour or longer, until the sticks are hard and crunchy. Store in a tightly covered container.
