I used to clip and save recipes that sounded intriguing
from the newspapers wherever we were living at the time.
Of course, with the change we have seen with
social media, I love finding vintage newspaper recipes
on Pinterest and I have two prize winning ones for you today.
I have tried so many Banana Bread recipes over the years and they all
taste different....this recipe uses LEMON ZEST and I think it
made all the difference in the world....just marvelous!
Now isn't this a beautiful loaf of freshly baked banana bread?.jpg)
This is perfect for a mid-afternoon snack or a breakfast delight...
serve warm with butter.....
The Process:
In a medium bowl, cream sugar and butter until light
and fluffy. Add eggs, one at a time. Beat well. Add vanilla extract, lemon zest
and bananas; mix well.
In a separate bowl, sift together flour, baking
soda, baking powder and salt. Add sifted ingredients alternately with sour
cream to the sugar mixture, mixing well after each addition. Blend in chopped
nuts. Butter and sugar two loaf pans. Divide batter between them. Bake in oven
30 to 40 minutes or until tester inserted in center comes out clean. Cool
slightly in pans; turn out on racks to cool.
Makes 2 loaves.
This cheese spread is perfect to serve when you
need an appetizer side....
or even a light lunch....on the menu for a summer party with family....
One block of swiss cheese, grated
one or two fresh scallions, chopped
two fresh Roma tomatoes, chopped
Pepper to taste
Mayonnaise to your preference...

So, so good on a hot summer day....enjoy!
