Provided by Judy Drietz

Number Of Ingredients 11

3/4 c vegetable oil
2 large eggs, beaten
1 tsp vanilla extract
2 c all purpose flour
1 tsp baking powder
1 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
1 1/2 c sugar
1/2 c milk or buttermilk
3 medium/large ripe bananas, mashed
1/2 c walnut pieces

Steps:

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Lightly spray 4 (15 oz.) or 3 (26 oz.) cans with non-stick spray. Mash bananas in separate bowl and set aside.
2. In large bowl, beat eggs. Add oil and vanilla, mix well. In a separate bowl, stir together the flour, baking powder, soda, salt and sugar. Add to wet ingredients alternately with the milk. Add bananas. Beat until smooth - fold in walnuts.
3. Fill cans 1/2 full. Set cans on cookie sheet. Bake at 350 degrees for 40 to 60 minutes OR UNTIL DONE (toothpick inserted in center should come out clean). They will be a nice golden brown. Time depends on the size of the can. Cool in cans on rack until you can touch, at least 5 minutes. Remove from cans and cool completely on rack. Wrap in plastic. Very moist! Freezes well.
4. Note: I've also made this into muffins. (Baking time is less...use toothpick test) As with the cans, spray with non-stick spray (or use cupcake liners) and fill 1/2 full.
