Hi there!! This is my mother's recipe and I LOVE it!! She always makes it for Christmas and will also always make 3-4 extra loaves for me to take home and freeze!! Enjoy!

Banana Nut Bread
1 c. sugar
3T. solid shortening
1 egg
1 1/2 c. milk
3 c. flour
3 1/2 t. baking soda
1 t. salt
1 or 1 1/2 mashed banana(s)
1 c. nuts

Mix all together. Mom uses a food processor...when I make it I use an electric mixer. Grease bread pans. Bake at 350 degrees for 60-70 minutes. Test for doneness with a tooth pick.

Servings: 2 medium-sized loaves

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease bottom of a 9x13" pan. Melt butter in saucepan over low heat. Remove from heat and stir in remaining ingredients in the order listed. Mix well. Spread in prepared pan. Bake 20 to 25 mins. or until done. Cool in pan & spread on the glaze. Cut into bars.
