Whip up banana nut cake in no time with this quick and easy recipe. I personally really like the taste and texture of this bread, very moist cake, perfect for using up overripe bananas. Not only are they easy to mash but they do have an outstanding flavor (instead of throwing them out) Best if made a day before serving. I've made it several times and people rave about it. It is very easy to make. If any lasts until day 2, I warm it up in the microwave for about 8 seconds and add just a tad of butter and it's like eating it fresh out of the oven again. This bread doesn't last long, that's for sure!!!!
INGREDIENTS:
*3 cups all purpose flour
*2 2/3 cups sugar
*1 cup shortening
*4 mashed bananas
*1 cup buttermilk
*2 teaspoons baking powder
*2 teaspoons baking soda
*1 1/2 teaspoon salt
*4 eggs
*1 cup finely chopped nuts
PROCEDURE:

Beat on high speed , scraping bowl occasionally, for apx 3 minutes. Then add nuts.
Spoon into pans.
