Servings: persons

1 3/4 cups flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
3/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1 cup banana, ripe (about 2 bananas)
1/2 cup almond milk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 cup vegetable shortening, solid (I like to use Earth Balance spread)
1 cup sugar
2 large eggs
1/4 cup almonds, toasted and chopped (or other nut of your choice, approximate amount used for topping)
1 tablespoon brown sugar (approximate amount used for topping)

1
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
2
Butter and flour loaf pan. (I use a stoneware loaf pan and only oil it slightly.).
3
In a medium bown, whisk flour, baking powder, salt, and baking soda.
4
In a small bowl, mash bananas. Mix in milk and vanilla.
5
In large bowl, beat shortening with electric mixer until creamy.
6
Gradually beat in sugar with shortening.
7
Add eggs to shortening one at a time, mixing well after each.
8
Alternately add the flour and banana mixtures to shortening mixture in two additions.
9
If you like nuts in your bread, add them here and use up to 1 cup.
10
Pour into loaf pan.
11
Sprinkle nuts and brown sugar on top and press into batter slightly. (This helps them to stick better after it's baked.).
12
Bake for about 1 hour 10 minutes, or until tester comes out clean.
13
Cool at least 5 minutes before removing from loaf pan.
