Banana Bread

This fabulous recipe is thanks to our good friend Renee Fry

1 1/4 cup sugar
1/2 cup butter, softened
2 large eggs
2 cups mashed ripe bananas
1/2 cup buttermilk (or 1/2 cup milk with 1/2 Tbsp vinegar)
1 tsp vanilla
2 1/2 cups flour
1 tsp baking soda
1 tsp salt

Cream sugar and butter together then add the eggs and mix well. Add the bananas, buttermilk, and vanilla and mix well. Add the flour, baking soda, and salt; stir in just until moistened.

Pour into pans and bake until a toothpick comes out clean; about 1 hour. Cool 5 minutes in the pan on a wire rack. Remove from pans and cool completely. Wrap tightly in saran wrap.
