7/8 c. sugar
1/2 c. vegetable oil
2 eggs
2 ripe med. sized bananas, mashed
5 tbsp. buttermilk
1 tsp. vanilla
1 3/4 c. flour
1 tsp. baking soda

Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Grease and flour loaf pan. Combine all ingredients and mix well by hand. Pour into loaf pan. Bake until golden brown and slightly split (about 1 hour and 20 minutes). Do Not Double Recipe. If you want to make more than 1 loaf, use several bowls and an assembly line approach. Extra loaves freeze well.
