Nanny’s Nanner Bread

Prep Time: 10-15 minutes

Cook Time: 1 hour

1 1/2 cup Oil

2 1/2 cups Sugar

3 Eggs

3 cups Flour

1 teaspoon Baking Soda 

1 teaspoon Vanilla

1 teaspoon Salt

6 tablespoons Buttermilk (buttermilk can be substituted with 2 tablespoons vinegar and 4 tabespoons regular milk)

3 large Bananas - mashed (its best to let bananas sit for 2-3 days from the time they're purchased until the skins start to turn brown before mashing them.)

Nuts can be added, but use no more than 1 cup per batch

 **This recipe will produce 2 loaves**

Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.

Obtain and grease 2 loaf pans.

In a large mixing bowl, add oil, sugar, eggs, flour, baking soda, vanilla, salt, buttermilk and nuts, if using and mix until incorporated. 

Mash bananas VERY well. Use a mixer to mix bananas into bowl with other ingredients, as the mixture will be rather thick. Blend until consistency is thick, but somewhat runny.

Divide mixture evenly between 2 loaf pans and cook in oven for 1 hour, or until toothpick comes out clean after being inserted into middle of loaf.
