Baby Food Banana Bread - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    1/2 cup sweet unsalted butter
    1 cup granulated sugar
    1 (6 ounce) jar banana baby food
    3 over ripe bananas, mashed
    1/2 teaspoon lime juice
    2 large eggs
    2 tablespoons buttermilk
    1 teaspoon vanilla
    1/2 teaspoon banana extract
    2 cups all-purpose flour
    1 teaspoon baking soda
    1/4 teaspoon salt
    1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
    1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
Preparation
    Mix together sugar and butter in a microwaveable dish and cook on HIGH heat just long enough for it to soften up- maybe 30 seconds, but not to melt it completely.
    Remove and stir to combine.
    Mix together baby food, over-ripe bananas, lime juice, eggs,vanilla,extract, and buttermilk.
    Mix in the butter mixture gradually, so as not to cook the eggs.
    It will look a little curdly from the lime juice- this is normal and will go away upon baking.
    Combine all dry ingredients together in a large bowl, then add the wet mixture and stir with a wooden spoon just enough to combine the ingredients and moisten them- pressing out any big lumps with your spoon (don't overmix).
    Pour into a greased and floured loaf pan (9x5\") and bake in a preheated oven at 350 F (180 C) for about an hour or until a toothpick tests clean.
    Let cool completely before serving or it will fall apart.
