Ingredients




cup Shortening
cup All-purpose flour
1 cup Sugar
2 lrgs Eggs
1 cup Mashed bananas (very ripe)
cup Quick-cooking oats, uncooked
cup Chopped pecans or walnuts
1 teaspoon Baking soda
1 teaspoon Baking powder
teaspoon Salt
1 cup Fresh or frozen blueberries

Preparation

1 Preheat oven to 350. Spray bottom only of 9" loaf pan with baker's joy. 2 Cream shortening and add sugar, beat until light and fluffy. Add eggs and beat well. Stir in banana. 3 Combine the oats, nuts, flour, soda, baking powder, salt, stirring gently. 4 Add to creamed mixture and stir until moist. Fold in blueberries. 5 Spoon batter into the prepared pan and bake for 50-55 minutes or until wooden pick inserted in the center comes out clean. Cool in pan 10 minutes; cool completely on wire rack. 6 The recipe can be made healthier by using egg beaters, canola oil, and mixing 1/2 and 1/2 wheat and white flour. But on the other hand, to make it more yummy, I sometimes add chocolate chips!
