âThis recipe won several blue ribbons at our county and Nebraska State Fairs,â writes Anna Marie Moore from Aurora, Nebraska. âItâs especially wonderful with black walnuts.â TIP: Since this bread freezes so well, why not double the recipe and keep a loaf on hand for guests or a quick gift? Ingredients:
3 tablespoons shortening |
1/3 cup sugar |
1 egg |
1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract |
2/3 cup king arthur unbleached all-purpose flour |
1/4 teaspoon baking soda |
1/8 teaspoon salt |
1/2 cup mashed ripe banana (about 1 large) |
3 tablespoons chopped walnuts |
Directions:
1. In a small bowl, cream shortening and sugar. Beat in egg and vanilla. Combine the flour, baking soda and salt; add to creamed mixture alternately with banana. Fold in walnuts.
2. Transfer to a 5-3/4-in. x 3-in. x 2-in. loaf pan coated with cooking spray. Bake at 325° for 50-55 minutes or until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean. Cool for 10 minutes before removing from pan to a wire rack to cool completely. Yield: 8 servings.
