Food Friday

Hi lovers. I know we have not featured Food Friday in a while. Fear not! We are still cooking and baking up a storm. I wanted to feature Angela's Uncle Robert's super-moist banana bread here today because a.) no one likes wasting food, b.) everyone likes a recipe that makes good use of bananas that have gotten a little too brown to eat, and c.) this banana bread is so fucking good you might need to write a song about it or something.

1/3 cup butter
11/2 cups sugar
2 eggs
4 mashed ripe bananas

21/4 cups flour
1/2 cup chopped pecans, raisins, chocolate chips, or whatever you like munching on! (optional)


Plus:
