Fall Foods

I can't decide what I love most about fall. I love the colors, I love the scents, I love the fashion.  I think that most of all, I love the food. I feel the most at home in my kitchen when I am baking. Baking is no fun in the summer heat. 

This last week's fall recipe was Banana Nut Bread! I even made an extra loaf and brought it over to our new neighbors. 

1 cup butter
1.5 cups sugar
.5 cup honey (eyeball it)
4 eggs
1/4 teaspoon salt
3 3/4 cups flour
5 bananas, very ripe, size medium
1 1/4 cups walnuts, chopped

I have an awesome kitchenaide mixer than my parents bought me when I got married. I cream together the butter, sugar, and honey. Add salt, eggs, flour. Then when those are fully mixed, cut up and add bananas then the nuts. This makes 2 loaves of bread. Grease bread pans, bake for an hour- one hour and fifteen minutes at 325 degrees. Check by poking the bread in the middle and see if it comes out clean. 

I will be honest: I never follow a recipe. I have recipes, but mostly my food is always different because I am always playing with something. 

Enjoy!
