Peels Were Not Harmed

My dear friend Jessica is the proud owner of approximately 785 cookbooks…and counting. Not one of which was left behind when she made her move to the UK. It's not unusual for me to be woken up in the middle of the night, by a beeping phone, only to find that it's an incoming email with a recipe for something that I "MUST try". Understandably, she's usually my first point of contact for obscure, or not so obscure recipes. So, armed with three uneaten ripe bananas, and Pig 1’s wish for banana bread, the emails began….(actual email exchange below):

Me: Need a good banana bread recipe for tonight.....any thoughts?.....
J: Didn't I email you a recipe ages ago? I'll look - I do have a personalized one.
Me: I'm sure you did....but it's probably in boxes somewhere....I have 4 extremely ripe bananas (possibly 3 if C ate one this morning after I left for work), that I'm trying to get rid of......Does that pulled pork really need 2 hours in the oven?.....(this relates to another recipe…obviously)
J: Yes! Can you wait a few hrs for BBread?
Me: crap! ok.....Yes, can def wait a few hours for banana bread....

A few hours later...(more like two):

J: BEST EVER BANANA BREAD 1 cup sugar 1/2 cup butter 3 very ripe bananas 2 eggs 1 1/4 cups flour 1/2 tsp salt 1 tsp baking soda 1 cup crushed walnuts Preheat oven to 350 degrees,Cream sugar and butter. Add bananas and eggs beaten. Sift flour,salt and baking soda 3 times. Blend and add to banana mixture. Pour patter into a 9x5 loaf pan. Bake for 55 min. Cool on rack. If this is not the tastiest and moistest bread you've ever eaten, I will eat your peels.

A few (more) hours later:

Simply put......Banana Bread Heaven!

Confession: I omitted the walnuts (sorry Jess!)
