Quick and easy! 

BANANA BREAD

Ingredients:

3 medium bananas (ripe)
3 oz butter or margarine
6 oz white sugar
1 egg beaten
8 oz all-purpose flour
4 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon salt

Directions:

• Liquidise or mash the bananas (liquidising is preferable as it will make the mixture lighter)
• Cream the butter (or margarine) and the sugar until light and fluffy.
• Beat in the egg.
• Beat in the sifted flour, baking powder and salt alternately with the liquidised bananas.
• Bake in a lightly greased loaf pan (or two small ones) at 350F for about 50 minutes. (If you are using two small pans, I find that the baking time goes down to 35 minutes.)

Enjoy!
