From a Dole pamphlet I've had sitting around since 1986! This is a nice twist on a standard banana bread or poppy seed bread. I love the light hint of lemon in the bread too with the lemon zest.

Steps:
- Mash bananas with a potato masher until all large pieces are broken down (or you can use a blender and puree the bananas) - you should receive about 1 cup of banana total. If not, then add enough banana to equal one cup.
- Cream together the sugar and butter until light and fluffy.
- Beat in eggs and grated lemon peel until blended.
- Combine the flour, baking powder, salt and cinnamon.
- Beat the bananas into the wet ingredients alternately with the dry ingredients -- repeating twice ending with dry ingredients.
- Hand stir in the poppy seeds.
- Pour into a well-greased (or sprayed) 9x5 inch loaf pan.
- Bake at 350* F for 50-60 minutes until pick inserted in center comes out clean. (The original recipe called for 60-70 minutes but mine is usually done before 60 minutes).
- Cool in pan for 10-15 minutes before turning out onto a wire rack to completely cool.
