"The bananas we brought to our church camp turned on the 4th day so we decided to make banana bread instead of throwing them out. Turned out moist and tender without being too sweet. Delicious way to use brown bananas. Taken from "Bernard Clayton's New Complete Book of Breads". The recipe was originally obtained from a hotel in Hawaii."
