Good Ol' American Cookin'

Recipe:   I mix together in a large bowl. 1 Cup of Water 1/4 C Corn Oil 3 ripe bananas, broken up in bite size pieces 4 eggs 1/4 C White Sugar 1/4 C Brown Sugar 1 Cup of Pecans (optional) 3 Cups Flour 2 tsp Baking Soda 2 tsp Salt Mix together thoroughly! Pour into two bread pans..the pans should be filled about half way +/- Place in a 350* oven for 50-60 mins or until your knife comes out clean! I take out of the pans about 5 mins after they are pulled out of the oven and laid on cooling racks. Doesn't hurt to slice a piece while it is still warm! Enjoy!

First my bio mom gave me this and it seems to be the same as this recipe I got out of a book called Country Wisdom & Know-How which was lovingly given to us by hubby's parents couple years ago. While you are putting this recipe together keep in mind that TOO MUCH MIXING IS NOT GOOD!!! Less is More!!

In Another Bowl cream butter and sugar. Stir(wire whisk) into creamed mix, the egg and MIX WELL!
