Personal Notes:
Grandma Charlotte Emigh developed this recipes. She one second place at the county fair with it. She would have won first but the judges said it was "too moist". I think it's perfect! You can also make muffins instead of bread. Just fill lined muffins tins to 3/4 full and bake 20-25 minutes.

Or make into a cake. Use 4 bananas and oil instead of shortening. Pour into a greased 8 x 8 square glass baking dish. Bake 40-45 minutes or until toothpick comes out clean. Allow to cool and then top with cream cheese frosting.
