Trust me, this one is good -- amazingly moist. Eat plain or spread with margarine/butter or some mashed bananas. For a less fattening banana bread, replace the oil with an equal amount of applesauce.

Ingredients:
+ 2 cups all-purpose flour
+ 1/2 cup granulated sugar
+ 3 tsp baking powder
+ 1/2 tsp baking soda
+ 1/2 tsp salt
+ 1 egg
+ 3/4 cup milk
+ 1/4 vegetable oil
+ 1-1/2 cups mashed bananas (~6 bananas, the softer the better)

1. In a big bowl, stir together with a fork the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda and salt.

2. In a different bowl, whisk the egg with the milk and oil.

3. Add the bananas to the wet mixture and mix it up a little bit.

4. Pour the wet mixture into the dry mixture and stir with a fork. Clumpy is okay as long as all the flour gets wet.

5. Put all of this into a greased 9"x5" baking pan (or split into two pans) and bake in a preheated oven at 350 degrees F.

7. Depending on your oven and how many pans you used, this should take about 50-65 minutes to bake. It's done when a toothpick inserted in the middle comes out clean.

8. Remove from oven when ready and let stand for at least 5 minutes.
