This recipe was found in Cuisines of Portuguese Encounters . I haven't made it yet. Ingredients:
1/2 cup butter (or margarine) |
1 1/3 cups sugar |
3 eggs |
1/2 teaspoon vanilla |
1 cup mashed banana (about 2) |
2 cups flour |
2 teaspoons baking powder |
1/4 teaspoon baking soda |
1/4 teaspoon salt |
3 tablespoons milk |
1/2 cup chopped cashews |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350. In a medium bowl, beat butter till creamy. Add the sugar 1/3 cup at a time, beating after each addition. Add eggs, one at a time, continuing to beat. Mix in the vanilla and bananas.
2. Sift together flour, baking powder and soda, and salt. Add creamy mixture, a little at a time, alternating with milk. Fold in chopped cashews. If you overbeat this, you will end up with tough bread.
3. Butter and flour a large loaf pan. Pour in batter. Bake 1 hr or until tests clean with a toothpick.
