Ingredients:





     3    Bananas; Ripe, Md


     1    Egg; Large, Unbeaten


   2/3 c  Sugar


     2 tb Light Molasses Or Syrup


     2 tb Shortening, Melted


     2 c  Whole Wheat Flour


     1 ts Baking Powder


     1 ts Baking Soda


   1/2 ts Salt


     1 c  Walnuts; Chopped, Optional






 Mash the bananas until no lumps remain.  Add the unbeaten egg, mixing


 well.  Beat in the sugar, molasses and the shortening. (NOTE:  The secret


 of this recipe is to mix the above ingredients well until very smooth.)


 Sift the flour, baking power, soda, and salt together and add to the


 liquid mixture.  As these are a quick bread, do not beat the dry mixture


 into the liquid but rather fold it in only until it is moistened and no


 streaks remain.  Spoon the mixture into a muffin tin that has been sprayed


 with a non-stick coating.  Bake at 350 degrees F for 20 to 25 minutes or


 until done.  Serve warm.
