When you mentioned bananas, it reminded me of another one of Mom's great recipes. She brought this recipe home with her from a vacation in Hawaii in 1972. In my mind, it is more a very nice banana cake than a bread.

HAWAIIAN BANANA BREAD

1-1/4 cups all-purpose flour
1 cup granulated sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 cup vegetable shortening
3 small ripe bananas (1-1/2 c. pureed)
2 eggs
1/2 cup macadamia nuts*

Mix dry ingredients in bowl. Put shortening, bananas and eggs in blender and whirl until smooth. Add pureed mixture to dry ingredients and mix only till just moistened. Don�t over-mix. Pour into greased and floured 8-inch square pan**. Bake at 350� for about 40 minutes. Remove from oven and let stand on rack for 5 minutes. Loosen edges and turn out to cool completely. Freezes well.

* I use pecans
** Can use 8-1/2 x 4-1/2� loaf pan

I remember the eggless chocolate cake - my son's favorite! We called it a crazy cake. I remember a topping we used to put on it - ummmmm. it had one egg, cream cheese a bit of sugar ( maybe 1/3 cup) and chocolat chips. We would drop it by spoonfuls on the cake before baking and it was delicious! Does anyone remember this topping - I can't find my recipe :*(
