In honor of Mother's Day, I am featuring recipes from some of the mother's who have touched my life. Today's recipe is from my good friend Larry's mother. If you like banana bread, give this recipe a try! She always said it was the glaze and really ripe bananas that made this bread so delicious.
Mrs. Flint's Banana Bread
Cream together 1 cup sugar and 1/2 cup butter. Add two eggs, 3 mashed RIPE bananas, pinch of sale, 1 teaspoon of soda, 1/2 teaspoon baking powder and 1 3/4 cup flour.
Bake in greased and floured loaf pans at 350 for 45 - 60 minutes. Makes two medium size loaves.
Glaze while still warm with a glaze of powdered sugar, butter, vanilla and milk.
