2. Cooking Directions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly grease two 9x5 inch loaf pans.
- In a large bowl, cream together the shortening and sugar until light and fluffy. Stir in the eggs one at a time, beating well with each addition. Stir in the mayonnaise and bananas. Stir together the flour, salt, baking powder and baking soda. Blend the flour mixture into the banana mixture; stir just enough to evenly combine. Fold in the chocolate chips and walnuts.
- Bake at 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) until a toothpick inserted into the center of the loaf comes out clean, about 50 to 75 minutes. Cool loaf in the pan for 20 minutes before removing to a wire rack to cool completely.
Yield: 20 servings

Helpful hints
Gelle - May 7, 2007 07:50:44 PM PSTI have been making banana bread for years and this is a good recipie. As for the comments before,there is a lot of sugar because it has 20 servings, thats a lot of servings. I suggest that instead of shortening I would use unsalted butter in equivelent, that is, in the same amount. Butter adds a better flavor then flavorless shortening.

A Healther Way to Indulge
momnature - May 9, 2007 02:00:54 PM PSTYou can replace some or all of the shortening with apple sauce and add a little less sugar. It will still be moist and delicious but will have a lot less fat and less sugar. Enjoy!

Way Too Sweet
tbdw_tbdw - April 19, 2007 11:40:08 AM PSTBetween the two cups of sugar and the chocolate, it was just way too sweet for my tastes. I tend to steer clear of shortening as well, but gave this a try...too sweet
