Banana Nut Bread - cooking recipe

Ingredients

1/2 cup Crisco shortening
2 cups sugar
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
2 eggs, beaten
3 bananas, mashed
1/3 cup buttermilk
1/2 cup chopped walnuts or 1/2 cup pecans

Preparation

Preheat oven to 350\u00b0F.
Cream shortening and sugar. Sift together flour, salt, baking powder and baking soda and add to creamed mixture. Add remaining ingredients; mix well.
Pour into 2 well-greased loaf pans. Bake for 55 to 60 minutes.
Note: Paula's original recipe indicated that it made one loaf and cooked for 40-45 minutes. It WILL NOT fit in 1 loaf pan and it definitely takes more than her stated time to cook.
