My recipe is from the Mickey's Gourmet Cookbook. It is from the Monorail Cafe at the DL Hotel.

2 sticks butter
2 cups sugar
2 eggs
2 cups of bananas
1/4 teasp. vanilla
3 cups of flour
1/2 teas. salt
2 teas. baking soda
1 cup of walnuts (which I don't use)

Preheat oven to 350. Melt butter and then mix butter with sugar until well blended. Add eggs one at a time, mixing well. Add bananas and vanilla.

Mix together flour, salt and soda, and then add to other mixture until four mixture is moist. Grease 2 loaf pans and divide batter equally between them. bake one hour or until center of loaf is firm and toothpick comes out clean.

I prefer to use aluminum (disposable kind) pans. bread cooks through better and is moist. I make this bread all the time. My family just loves it.
