-3 1/2 cups organic plain flour
-1 teaspoon fine sea salt
-3 teaspoon baking powder
-1 teaspoon baking soda …………mix the soda and powder together in one bowl

-2  cups mashed ripe bananas (I use 4 – 6 very brown bananas and never bother measuring, my mom goes by the books thou)
-1 tablespoon fresh squeezed lemon juice…….mix the lemon and banana together in another bowl

-1 cup unsalted organic butter melted, then cooled slightly (don’t leave too long or it will harden again)

-1 1/2 cups sugar (I use unrefined natural granulated cane sugar, I find the white sugar is too sweet, I also recommend trying just 1 cup of sugar, but my mother has always made it with 1 1/2 cups)

3 eggs

-3/4 cups milk

• Beat together wet and dry ingredients separately then mix wet banana mixture alternately into dry mixture until light and fluffy.
• Pour into two greased 8 x 4 ” loaf pans or 1 greased bundt or angel food cake pan.
• Bake in a moderate oven @ 350 degrees (176C) for one hour or until or until toothpick comes out clean. (I check after 35 minutes.)
• Cool in pans 10 minutes before removing from pans.  Cool well on a wire rack. Wrap in foil or place in tin. Cool overnight before slicing (if you can resist, which I often can’t!).
• Makes 2 loaves or 1 bundt, or two dozen banana muffins.

Enjoy!
