~Yummy Banana Bread!~

~This is when I made 45 loaves of this Banana bread for Bible Day and for a youth camp for our 2 churches.~

Yummy Banana Bread
(I got this recipe from my dear sister Laura who got it from our good friend Lenita!)
Cream together:
1/2 cup oil
1 1/2 cups sugar (I use 1)
Add:
2 eggs
1/2 t. salt
3 ripe bananas
1 1/2 c. flour
Combine 1 t. baking soda and 1/3 cup sour cream, or butter milk ( I sour my own milk!)
Add alternately with buttermilk mixture and then flour mix until well mixed.
Can add choc. chips, or chopped pecans to the batter if you want! =)

Bake at 350 for 45 mins. (bake the muffins for less time...about 15-20 mins, or until toothpick inserted comes out clean.)
Yields: 1 Large loaf, or 18 muffins (give or take a few!)

(I tripled the recipe so I could make 5 large loaves at a time. That way I have some to give and some for my family. =)
Here's my multiplied recipe:
2 cups oil
3 cups sugar (YES, I PUT LESS SUGAR THAN IF IT WERE TRIPLED, BUT WE THINK THAT IT IS SWEET ENOUGH WITH 3 CUPS! =)
8 eggs
2 t. salt
12 ripe bananas, squished ( I blend them)
1 1/3 cup buttermilk or sour cream
2 1/2 t. baking soda
6 cups of flour
Add alternately with buttermilk mixture and then flour mix until well mixed.
Can add choc. chips, or chopped pecans to the batter if you want! =) (For baking times see above recipe!)

We had a good Sunday. I was able to go by taxi Sunday morning, but since there aren't a lot of taxis in that area we had to take a VERY BUMPY bus ride home, and that wasn't good on my back, so I stayed home Sunday evening. (For the bus ride Sunday night is WAY WORSE!!) We had good crowds in both services and God helped. Phillip always has a house service each week, and last week there were 25 people there, which was a record high. God is helping! My back is doing better, but I'm still having to be careful. I plan to try to find some help for my back this week if I can. Thank you for your prayers!
