Banana Nut Bread

"This is the best banana bread recipe! It’s not heavy or dry like so many others. The texture is perfect." -Chef #1386783 Food.com

Ingredients:
Serves: 24
Yield: 2 loaves

2 cups sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 1/4 cups flour
3/4 cup vegetable oil
3 large eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 1/3 teaspoons baking soda
1/4 cup buttermilk (I've always used sour milk)
1 cup chopped pecans
4 -5 bananas (use completely black bananas, this is very important)

Directions:

1 Heat oven to 350°. Grease or spray 2 loaf pans.
2 In a large bowl, mash bananas with a masher or by well washed hands.
3 Dissolve soda in buttermilk-- use a larger container as it will foam up quite a bit.
4 Mix all ingredients by hand and add in 1 cup chopped nuts. Bake at 350° for 1 hour, or until toothpick comes out ALMOST clean.
5 Totally clean will mean a dryer loaf.
6 Let cool 15 minutes after removing from oven and remove from pans.
7 Or, let cool, cover with foil, slide into freezer bags and freeze.
8 Great when using tin foil pans.
