Banana Bread

This is my mom's banana bread recipe... I always make it when we have over-ripe bananas!

Banana Bread

1/3 cup butter, plus a little to grease the pan

2/3 cup sugar

1 egg

2-3 ripe bananas

1 ¾ cups self rising flour

A little orange juice

1) preheat oven to 350º (325º if dark pan), place loaf pan in oven while it is heating.

2) melt butter for 30 seconds in microwave (not fully melted)

3) Mix butter and sugar together, add egg. Mix until fluffy.

4) Place bananas in measuring cup, mash down and add enough orange juice to make 1 cup

5) Mix banana mixture with egg mixture and add self-rising flour until just combined.

6) Remove pan from oven, rub butter over hot pan

7) Fill pan, cook for 45 minutes or until golden brown and toothpick comes out clean.

The hint of orange and the buttery edges make this recipe really tasty!
