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

I recently decided to take up the art of sourdough. Then "quarantine" came along and I can't actually put myself in an expert's kitchen in close quarters and I've had to go searching for instruction elsewhere. Voila! Youtube to the rescue. My friend, Leigh sent me a...

This method takes only a bit less time, but you don’t have to babysit it. Put it in the Instant Pot, set the timer, come back later when it’s all done. I make 3-4 servings at a time, then reheat in the microwave.

My husband made this for dinner just before Christmas. The guests are still asking “When are we doing it again?”
Be prepared to take your time — but the results are worth it!
