Mix dry ingredients together in mixing bowl. Add shortening, bananas and buttermilk; mix until flour is dampened. Then beat vigorously for two minutes. Add eggs and beat two more minutes. I use an electric mixer.
Spread batter into 2 greased and floured 9 inch round pans(or a 9x12).
Bake in pre-heated 350 degree oven for 35 minutes.
Cool completely before frosting.
