My favorite banana bread recipe

Although the goal of this blog was to experiment with untried recipes, I'm posting a banana bread recipe that has been a staple in my family for 40 years. Do you have one of those cookbooks that falls open to your favorite recipe, the pages stained from ingredients dripping on it as you checked the exact measurements every single time you made it? Enjoy :)

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

Cream 1 C Sugar with 1/2 C Vegetable Oil

Add 2 well beaten eggs.

Add 3 mashed bananas - the riper the better!

Combine the following and add to the first mixture.

2 C sifted flour 

1 t baking soda

1/2 t baking power

1/2 t. Salt

Add 3 tbls of milk and 1/2 C Nuts to the final mixture.

Bake in loaf pan for one hour or until knife in center is clean.

Maybe I should get one of these to put my recipes while I'm baking? It's almost a badge of honor for the recipe, though, proof of how well liked it is. Let me know if you've used one and whether or not you recommend it.
