Freezes well and can be sliced while frozen if you do not plan to use the entire loaf at once.

• 2 eggs
• 1/2 c. butter or margarine
• 1 1/2 tbsp. buttermilk or sour cream
• 1 tsp. lemon juice
• 1 c. sugar

• 1 1/2 tsp. baking powder
• 1/2 tsp. baking soda
• 1 c. chopped walnuts or pecans

Preparation

Step 1

Place bananas, eggs, butter, buttermilk or sour cream, lemon juice and sugar into a blender container or work bowl of food processor fitted with the steel blade. Whirl until smooth.
