Banana Yeast Bread image

Though our two children (now grown; we have one granddaughter) dislike bananas, they've always enjoyed this. It's been a standby since my grandmother shared the recipe before I was married. Cooking is fun for me...but I have to admit I would rather bake than make a meal. This yeast bread is my favorite. -Maralee Meyer, Milford, Nebraska

I'm not a big fan of bananas but I really enjoyed this bread. It's not too sweet and the texture is perfect.
