New England Fruit Bread

By babyoutdoors

This recipe was one my grandma made since I was a little kid. It tastes nothing like your ordinary fruit bread that has given fruit bread a bad rap.

Ingredients

• 1 cup margarine
• 2 cups sugar
• 4 eggs, beaten
• 6 large ripe bananas
• 4 cups of flour
• 2 tsp soda (add to flour)
• 1 cup nuts (optional)
• 1 cup chocolate chips
• 1 cup cherries, chopped (candied or maraschino)

Preparation

Step 1

Cream margarine and sugar until fluffy. Add remaining ingredients, one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Grease and flour 3 loaf pans. Bake for 1 hour at 350 degrees.
