    This bread is light and tender yet firm,, and has a mixture of flavors appealing to the taste buds. I began cooking at any early age and mostly used family recipes. However, over the years I have tried many bread recipes and eventually came up with this one. The blend of orange and lemon is satisfying.

    Ingredients

    • 1 cup butter ( or butter flavored shortening).
    • 1 1/2 cups sugar
    • 6 oz. lemon yogurt ( or add 2 tsp. lemon to plain yogurt)
    • 6-7 ripe bananas
    • 3-4 lg. eggs
    • 1/2 tsp. salt.
    • 1 tsp. baking powder
    • 1 tsp. baking soda
    • 1 tsp . vanilla
    • 3 T. frozen orange juice concentrate
    • 2 1/2 cups flour
    • 1 cup chopped nuts
    • Optional: 2/3 cup raisin or 1/2 cup chocolate cips ( or both)

    Directions

    1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees
    2. Blend together butter ( oleo), sugar, vanilla, yogurt, bananas, eggs and orange concentrate.
    3. Mix thoroughly.
    4. Gradually add the flour, salt, baking powder and soda.
    5. Beat until no lumps.
    6. Fold in chopped nuts.
    7. Grease/flour all loaf pans:
    8. a. If you use 4 x 8 pan, you should get 3 loaves. Fill up to 2/3rd. Bake for about 70 minutes
    9. b. If you use 4 x 5 x 2 3/4th pan, you should get 5 loaves. Bake for about 60 minutes or until toothpick comes out clean.
    10. Remove when baked and let stand for a while before removing from pan.
    11. Freeze well.
    12. Shelf life 1 year.
