Banana Banana Bread

(from AmericnJewl’s recipe box)

I used 3 med-large bananas and it came out dense, but quite moist and delicious!
Try adding nuts or chocolate chips. Substitute some of the flour with whole wheat flour and cut the butter in half and add 1/4 cup apple sauce to make it healthier.
