This used to be the page for my Sister-in-laws recipe, but I found this one on All Recipes that I like more. I've modified it a bit...
From the kitchen of: Jessie Boren (Katie's sister-in-law)
MIX THIS STUFF:
1/2 C buttermilk (I usually cheat and use 1Tbs vinegar and add enough milk to get 1/2 C total)
1 C mashed bananas (about 3)
1 C sugar
1/2 C shortening
2 eggs
1 tsp vanilla
1 tsp salt
1 tsp soda
2 C flour
Pour into greased and floured bread pans (I usually do a normal sized loaf and some small ones)
Sprinkle with brown sugar
Bake around 50min. at 350ºF (definitely use a toothpick to see if it's done... it will depend on the size of the pan and how thick the batter is)
Muffins: I did muffin format (it made ~18 muffins) and 350 degrees for 30 minutes seemed to do the trick nicely.
MAKES: 2ish loaves
