an afternoon project

Today, among other things, I decided to make banana bread.
Recipe

Measure out 1 3/4 cup all purpose flour and resift with 2 1/4 teaspoon baking powder. Set aside.
Blend until creamy 1/3 cup shortening (at room temp.) with 2/3 cup sugar and 3/4 teaspoon grated lemon rind. Beat in 1-2 beaten eggs (at room temp.) until blended then add 1 cup mashed ripe banana. Add the flour mixture to this in 3 parts, mixing well after each addition. Add 1/2 cups nuts if you want (I didn't have any so my bread is nut-less). Grease loaf pan and bake 1 hour in 350 oven. Yummy.
