JOE’S BANANA (&C.) BREAD

You’ll want the electric mixer for this. And a pretty big bowl, even though you’re only making one loaf of bread. You will also need:

1-3/4 cups flour
2-1/4 tsp. baking powder
½-tsp. salt
2 eggs
1/3-cup butter
2/3-cup sugar
3 bananas
1 cup raisins
2 to 3 cups walnuts (shelled)

1.
SIFT together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.

2.
NUKE the butter in the microwave (30 seconds on high.) BEAT on medium speed in the Big Bowl the eggs (with shells removed), nuked butter, sugar, bananas (with peels removed), and raisins. Make sure the bananas get thoroughly chewed up by the beaters.

3.
REDUCE MIXER SPEED TO LOW, and add the flour (&c.) mixture. (You do not have to reduce the speed, but you’ll be glad you did. You won’t have to clean up as much of the kitchen.) Somewhere around here, you should pre-heat the oven to 350 degrees.

4.
STOP MIXER and add walnuts (2 cups? 3 cups? Who’s counting?). Stir in with wooden spoon or other non-mixer implement.

5.
DECANT into greased standard-sized bread pan. Bake for ONE HOUR. Knife or other shiny implement should come out clean when the bread is done.
