Melt in Your Mouth Banana Bread

2/3 cup oil
5 eggs
2 cups mashed bananas (about 4 med.)
2 cups flour
2 cups sugar
1/2 of an 8 oz package
1 tsp. salt
1 tsp. baking soda

Preheat oven to 325. Mix oil, egg and bananas in a bowl. Mix all dry ingredients in separate bowl making sure salt and baking soda are mixed in well. Add dry ingredients to wet, slowly until thoroughly mixed. Grease and flour loaf pans. Bake for 1 hour. Makes 2 9x5x3 (4 minis – bake 45 min.) Stick in knife or toothpick to check when done.

***I always double this batch and then just use the whole bag of vanilla pudding mix. If you don’t want to bake all of the dough right then place in freezer. Thaw completely and then pour into greased/floured pans and bake.

I also freeze bananas to use for later. When they look a little ripe I put them in the freezer with the peeling on, then peel before I add them to my recipe.
