Title: Neysa's Banana Nut Bread
Categories: Bread Fruit Neysa
Yield: 3 Loaves

2 1/2	c	Sugar
1	c	Crisco
4		Eggs
4	c	Flour
1 1/2	ts	Baking soda
1	ts	Baking powder
1	ts	Salt
1/2	c	Buttermilk
6		Ripe bananas, mashed
1	ts	Vanilla
1	c	Broken walnuts

Cream crisco and sugar. Add eggs, one at a time. Beat until fluffy. Mix salt, soda and baking powder with flour. Mash bananas and add buttermilk and vanilla.

Mix dry ingredients alternately with wet ingredients into sugar/egg/crisco mixture. Add walnuts.

Grease and flour three foil loaf pans and divide batter into them.

Bake at 350 degrees for 1 hour. After it has cooled to touch, put each loaf in a 1 gallon zip lock bag. This will soften the crust. Don't zip the bag until the bread is cool.

* I put my walnuts in a gallon bag and roll them with a rolling pin.

* If you are making jarcakes this will make 13 12 oz jars. Fill to 1/3 up on smooth oval where the label goes.
