   2       c            Unbleached flour
   1       t            Baking soda
     1/2   ts           Salt
     1/2   c            Butter or margarine
   1       c            Sugar
   2                    Eggs
   1       c            Mashed, ripe bananas
     1/3   c            Buttermilk
   1       t            Vanilla
     1/2   c            Chopped pecans

  Everyone has banana bread recipes, but this one uses buttermilk which
  I thought was interesting.
  
  Banana bread is made all over the Northern Hemisphere but this recipe
  is from the South.
  
  Combine flour, soda and salt in a mixing bowl.  Cream butter with
  sugar and beat in eggs with bananas, buttermilk and vanilla.  Stir
  into dry ingredients and fold in nuts.  Spoon into a greased 9 x
  5-inch pan and bake in a preheated 350F oven for about an hour, or
  until bread tests done in the center.
  
  Makes 1 loaf.
