Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
3 Bananas, very ripe
1 C Sugar
1/2 C Shortening (butter)
2 Eggs
3 T Yoghurt or sour cream
2 C Flour
1 t Baking soda
1 C Walnuts, chopped
Rum, vanilla, or amaretto
-(optional)

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Cream the shortening and sugar. Mix in
the bananas. Mix in the remaining ingredients. Pour into a greased loaf
pan. Bake 1 hour 15-20 minutes at 350 degrees F.

NOTES:

* This recipe is from my friend Ayalla -- It makes a heavy, but moist,
loaf of banana bread.

* If you use more than 3 normal-size bananas, I suggest that you lower the
oven temperature and cook for a while longer. Otherwise, the crust comes
out almost overcooked while the middle remains moist and almost
undercooked.

: Difficulty: easy.
: Time: Preparation: 10 minutes; baking: at least 95 minutes. Allow
some time for cooling.
: Precision: Approximate measurement OK.
