Banana Bread Recipe

This is my recipe that I make for my homeless guys. I have added the buttermilk, chocolate chips, and brown sugar to the original recipe. If you don't like the chocolate chips, just omit that part. You can also add 1/2 cup nuts, or raisins according to taste.
I hope you enjoy it. Super easy and pretty darned tasty!
Banana Bread Recipe

preheat oven to 350
grease one loaf pan with shortening and dust with flour

In a large mixing bowl
mix with fork
1 3/4 cups flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt

In another, smaller, bowl
mix with a fork
1/3 cup shortening
2/3 cups of brown sugar
2 large eggs
1/4 cup buttermilk

In a third bowl

alternate mixing the two small bowls into the flour mixture until completely blended with a spoon. make sure to scrape the bottom of the pan and get any flour mixture that is on the bottom mixed in. add 1/2 cup of chocolate chips if desired.

allow it to cool so it can be handled and remove it from loaf pan. I wrap mine in foil and refrigerate it if I don't plan to serve it right away.
