Very yummy recipe my mom gave me. Been using it for 20 years. I got a blue ribbon at the fair when I was in 4-H. Bread with nuts is boy banana bread and without nuts is girl banana bread, my kids don’t get that yet but prefer the girl banana bread. Store all your old bananas in the peel in the freezer and when you need some for bread pull them out, thaw, cut the end off and they slide out and work great in breads and muffins.
