Dino’s Banana Bread

3 medium-sized, ripe bananas
2 tablespoons peanut butter
2 cups flour
1/2 tsp salt
1 tsp baking soda
1/2 coarsely chopped nuts
3/4 cup sugar

The dough for the bread will be relatively thick.  Do not get nervous and decide to deviate from the recipe.

Mash the bananas.  Add the peanut butter, salt, baking soda, sugar and nuts.  Stir together to combine.  Add the flour and stir to combine.  Port into a greased baking pan.  I used a small casserole dish and had excellent results. You can also try using a loaf pan, but I think that it would make the center be a bit uncooked.

Let the bread bake for one hour at 350.  Let it cool for fifteen minutes before removing from the dish.
