Banana Bread

• 5 bananas

• 4 eggs (well beaten)

• 1 cup shortening

• 2 c sugar

• 4 c flour

• 2 t soda

• 1 t salt

Beat bananas to a liquid, add eggs.  Cream the sugar and shortening then add banana-egg mix. Sift flour, soda and salt. Pour into 2 well-greased loaf pans.   

Bake at 250 for 90 minutes (until the toothpick comes out clean)

To get the soft crust that we all love, let the bread cool on a cooling rack for a bit, then wrap it in tin foil while it's still warm so all the steam will soak back into the crust making it soft and delicious!
