Banana Bread

1 c sugar
½ c shortening (butter, margarine, crisco)(I used butter)
2 eggs
3 bananas, mashed
2 c flour
1 tsp. baking soda
½ tsp salt
nuts or chocolate chips, optional
Cream the sugar and shortening with a mixer. Add the eggs and bananas and mix well. Add the dry ingredients and mix until well blended. Pour into loaf pans that have been greased. Bake 50 - 60 minutes at 350 or until done. Take the loaves out of the pan while they still hot. Makes 2 loaves.

Thanks to Tiffany at eatathomecooks.com for another GREAT recipe!  I had hoped to freeze some for mornings when we are running late and want to still grab something for breakfast - but we ate both loaves within a couple of days!
