        • Easy Banana Bread
        • Description
          • What is better for breakfast with a nice cup of coffee, or a snack?  This recipe is super easy!
        • Ingredients
          • 1 cup white sugar
          • 1/2 cup margarine, softened
          • 2 eggs
          • 1-1/2 cups mashed banana
          • 2 cups all-purpose flour
          • 1 teaspoon baking soda
        • Directions
          • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease and flour a 9x5-inch loaf pan. Beat sugar and margarine in a bowl until smooth. Beat in eggs, then bananas. Add flour and baking soda, stirring just until combined. Pour into the prepared pan. Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick in the center comes out clean, about 1 hour. Remove from the pan and let cool. Store in the refrigerator or freeze. You can also customize and use chunky applesauce or a 15-ounce can of pumpkin for wonderful variations.
