Bread
This is just a real simple recipe but it always comes out good. I've added nuts and dates and raisins and chocolate chips... about a cup of any one thing and not more than about 2 cups total addition.

1 3/4 Cup all purpose flour
2/3 Cup sugar
1 Tsp baking pwd
1/2 Tsp salt
1/4 Tsp baking soda
1/2 Cup shortening (I've used butter instead
1 Cup mashed banana (about 2)
2 eggs slightly beaten

preheat oven to 350. grease and flour 9x5 loaf pan. Mix first 5 ingredients, cut in shortening, stir in bananas and eggs until just blended. spread evenly in pan.

Bake 55-60 min. until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean (I think I check it at 45-50 min). cool 10 min remove from pan.
