Banana Bread

1/3 cup soft butter
1/3 cup crisco (butter flavor)
1 1/2 cups sugar
2 eggs
1 cup bananas (3 very ripe bananas.)
1/4 cup milk, soured with 1 Tablespoon lemon juice or vinegar
1 tsp. baking powder
1/2 tsp. baking soda
1 tsp. vanilla
2 cups flour

Cream butter, crisco, and sugar very well. Add eggs, bananas, sour milk and mix again. Add vanilla, baking powder, and soda. Add flour last, mixing flour as little as possible.
Pour into three loaf pans and bake for at 350 degrees for 45 minutes or until toothpick comes out clean.
Mini-loaf banana bread will take around 25 minutes.

You must grease and flour pans or it will stick.

For years, I've heard people say this is the best banana bread they have tasted. I thought it was perfected. Had the idea this year to try both butter and crisco. It was so much better, I was shocked. Now, I really can say it is perfect.
