Kaufman’s Nana Bread

Name: Kaufman's Nana Bread
Prep time: 10 min
Cook time: 1 h
Total time: 1 h 10 min
Yield: 1 regular loaf
Ingredients: 1/2 c shortening (I now use Coconut Oil - works wonderfully); 1 c sugar; 2 eggs; 2 c pre-sifted flour; 1 tsp baking soda; 1+ c mashed bananas (the rottener the better! -- and a bit more than 1 cup works as well); 1 Tbsp crunchy Peanut Butter

I've been making this banana bread recipe since Meg passed it on in the early 1970's. Yes, I gave up Crisco and now use coconut oil, which is even better! And I measure the bananas quite generously.

Notes

Very forgiving recipe -- use at least 1 cup of mashed banana, but a bit extra is really good as well. I have been known to add a touch of salt (salt-a-holic here - especially if I used all natural peanut butter with no salt added); crunchy peanut butter is best, but smooth/creamy works just fine. And, since I won't touch Crisco anymore, I started using coconut oil. Even better than the original shortening. Guess you could use lard ( )

Ingredients

1/2 c shortening (I now use Coconut Oil - works wonderfully)
1 c sugar
2 eggs
2 c pre-sifted flour
1 tsp baking soda
1+ c mashed bananas (the rottener the better! -- and a bit more than 1 cup works as well)
1 Tbsp crunchy Peanut Butter

Instructions

Preheat oven to 350ÂºF
Beat sugar and oil
Add eggs and continue to beat
Add dry ingredients alternating with bananas and peanut butter
Pour into a loaf pan
Bake for approximately 1 hour

Carrot Cake

by Beth | Sep 21, 2023 | Recipes

For years my brother and I competed for the honor of "Best Carrot Cake." Eventually I gave in and told him "You win! You make the Thanksgiving carrot cake from now to eternity." He tried to get me to take on that task after a few years, but I declined. I must say, I...

Brunswick Stew

The time honored recipe that I learned for Brunswick Stew involved 3 or 4 squirrels, a rabbit and maybe a possum (or some other roadkill). Or squirrel, rabbit and chicken at least. Needless to say, I scared a priest from New York (NYC) by explaining this before I...

🙂 My aunt Priscilla gifted me with several quick, delicious recipes. This pumpkin pie recipe is so easy and so good. I loved it from day one, but it got even better when I started preparing my own pumpkin instead of canned. And, I'm generous when I measure the...
