Cameroonian Banana Bread

Cameroonian Banana Bread

This recipe is from my friend, Megan at The books that would be written.

Ingredients:

3-4 ripe bananas

2 tablespoons butter, softened

1/3 cup sugar

2 eggs

1 teaspoon baking soda

1 teaspoon baking powder

1 teaspoon cinnamon (optional)

1 1/2 cups flour (white or wheat)

Directions:

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees and grease a medium bread tin. Peel the bananas and break into chunks, adding to mixing bowl. Add butter and sugar. With electric mixer, mix until mostly smooth. Add eggs and mix until blended. Add baking powder, baking soda, and cinnamon and beat until well-mixed. Gradually add flour and mix, just until well blended. Pour batter into tin and bake for about an hour or until a toothpick comes out clean.
