Idiot-Proof Banana Bread - cooking recipe

Ingredients

1/4 cup butter (or margarine)
1 cup sugar (less if brown, or non-calorie sweetener to equal same sweetness)
2 eggs (or egg substitute)
1 lb banana (measured with skins on, about 3 large or 4 small)
1 1/2 cups flour (cook longer if using whole wheat)
1 teaspoon baking soda
optional
1/2 cup chocolate chips
1/2 cup chopped walnuts

Preparation

mash bananas with a potato masher, don't use a blender, it gets too runny. add everything else and mix well.
pour into a greased loaf pan (you could probably use muffins tins and bake for less time, haven't tried).
bake at 350f for about an hour or until knife inserted comes out clean, remember it will firm up a little while cooling.
