Banana Bread

This is just a basic banana bread recipe, nothing fancy. But it's good!

3 ripe bananas
1 cup sugar
1/2 cup butter, room temperature
2 eggs, well beaten
2 cups flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup walnuts

Mash bananas and set aside. In a large bowl cream sugar and butter together. Stir in eggs and mashed bananas. In a separate bowl sift together flour, baking soda, and salt. Add to first mixture and stir together (just until combined). Stir in nuts. Place in two greased 9x5 inch loaf pans and bake at 350 F for 25 minutes. Reduce heat to 275 F and bake for an additional 20-25 minutes or until toothpick comes out clean. Makes 2 loaves.
(Note: Not sure what they're talking about. It makes 2 small loaves or 1 large. Adjust cooking times accordingly.)
