BANANA LOAF CAKE
Recipe from an email from a kitchen wharehouse supplier - looks interesting and would like to try if I can get some bananas ripened enough and not have the DS throw them out on me (24 year old nearing 25 with autism intellectual impairment), I just may get to make this recipe, in the mean time here for safe keeping. Times are estimated.

BANANA LOAF CAKE I
This recipe is a family favorite. It is great for using overripe bananas. I usually double the recipe and make two loaves. You can also add walnuts if you wish. Note: When your bananas are overripe, you can put them in the freezer until you are ready to use them.

Tips:
- Use ripe bananas: The riper the bananas, the sweeter and more flavorful your banana loaf cake will be.
- Cream the butter and sugar until light and fluffy: This will help to incorporate air into the batter, resulting in a lighter and more tender cake.
- Gradually add the eggs: Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. This will help to prevent the batter from curdling.
- Fold in the dry ingredients gently: Overmixing the batter can result in a tough cake. Gently fold in the dry ingredients until just combined.
- Don't overbake the cake: A toothpick inserted into the center of the cake should come out with just a few moist crumbs attached.
