Banana Nut Bread
¾ cup butter 1 ½ teaspoon baking soda
1 ½ cup sugar ½ cup milk
3 eggs, separated ½ cup sour cream
5 large mashed bananas ¾ cup finely chopped
3 cups flour pecans
¾ teaspoon salt
Grease and flour pans, 4 loaf pans or 8 mini loaf pans or coat with vegetable
shortening spray. Cream the butter and sugar together thoroughly. Add egg
yolks, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Add bananas, mixing
well. Measure ½ cup milk and add sour cream to fill the cup. Sift together the
flour, soda, and salt. Add the flour and milk alternately to the banana mixture,
ending with the flour. Add the nuts and mix well.
Beat egg whites until they stand in stiff peaks. Fold carefully into banana
batter. Divide batter evenly between the containers, filling each to within ½
inch to ¾ inch of the top. Bake at 300º for 45 to 50 minutes. Cool on rack before
storing in tins.
