Banana Bread

Horrors! I went to make some banana bread with very ripe fruit only to discover that my bread cookbook is GONE!  Gulp! Luckily most of my recipes are from Baker Susan Hatch, aka Mom. But I still have a few of my own...which are now, gone.  This is the only Banana Bread recipe that I like and I found it in an ancient cookbook when I was in college. Probably one that my grandmother gave to me when I moved into my first darling apartment.
