PUMPKIN BANANA BREAD 
1 1/2 c. sugar
3/4 c. butter
3 eggs
1 c. canned pumpkin
2 med. ripe bananas
1 tsp. vanilla
3 c. all-purpose flour
2 tsp. baking powder
1 tsp. pumpkin pie spice
1 c. chopped walnuts or pecans (optional)

Preheat oven to 350°F. In a large bowl combine sugar, butter, and eggs. Beat at medium speed until light and fluffy. Add pumpkin and mashed bananas; continue beating until mixed (mixture will have curdled appearance). Add remaining ingredients except nuts; mix until moistened. Stir in nuts.

Spread into 2 greased 8x4 loaf pans. Bake 50-60 minutes or until wooden pick in center comes out clean. Cool in pans 5 minutes. Remove from pans; cool completely. This is a moist bread that keeps for days but doesn't last that long at our house.

Wow; HIGHLY recommended. I had an old raggedy banana and a half cup of pumpkin puree and now I have a beautiful loaf of the most fragrant and delicious bread! (I halved the recipe.) Thank you for sharing this.

Made this exactly as directed. No substitutions. I really liked that it made two loaves, and was planning on keeping one loaf and giving the second as a gift. So glad I tasted the one I was keeping... you can only vaguely taste the banana or pumpkin flavor. It is bland, and extremely sweet.
