Mom’s Banana Bread

My mom’s recipe, so of course it’s amazing.

What you need:

• 1 cup sugar
• 1/2 cup unsalted butter
• 2 eggs, beaten
• 3 crushed, *very* ripe bananas
• 1/4 cup buttermilk
• 1 tsp baking soda
• 1 1/2 cup flour – sifted
• 1 tsp salt
• 1 cup chopped walnuts

What to do:

Sift together flour, baking soda and salt, set aside. In a bowl, use hand mixer to beat the butter for 30 seconds. Add the sugar and beat until creamy. Incorporate the eggs (don’t over mix). Now mix by hand to add in the flour and bananas, alternating in 1/3’s. Mix until smooth. Add buttermilk, mix well. Pour into a greased/floured loaf pan and bake at 325 for 60-70 minutes.
