• 2 eggs

• 3 ripe bananas, mashed

• 3 Tbsp sour cream

• 2 cups flour

Preheat oven to 350°F. You will need a greased 9-x-5 loaf pan.

1. In a large mixing bowl, mix shortening, sugar, eggs, bananas and sour cream.

2. In another bowl, sift flour, baking soda and salt; stir into banana mixture until

just mixed; fold in nuts.

hour; cool for 10 minutes in the pan. Turn out onto plate; wrap securely in

plastic wrap while still warm.
