• 3 cups flour
• 1 1/2 teaspoons baking soda
• 1/4 teaspoon salt

Preparation

Step 1

Preheat Oven to 275 (yes that’s correct : )

Step 1.) Mash up bananas really good with a fork and mix in lemon juice. Set aside.
Step 2.) In a medium bowl, sift together flour, baking soda & salt. Set aside.
Step 3.) In a large bowl, cream butter & sugar until fluffy.
Step 4.) Add in eggs, one at a time & then add in vanilla.
Step 5.) Beat in the flour mixture alternating it with the buttermilk.
Step 6.) Stir in the banana mixture.
Step 7.)Pour batter into two greased & flour loaf pans & bake in oven for 45 minutes to 1 hour or until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean.
Step 8.) Remove from oven and place directly into freezer to cool for about 20-30 minutes. This will make the bread incredibly moist.
Step 9.) Store in an airtight container. (I keep it in the refrigerator)
