Banana Nut Bread

Prepare according to the IRISH FRECKLE BREAD recipe using about 7-¼ cups unsifted flour. Add 1 cup mashed bananas and 1 cup chopped pecans in place of raisins. Proceed according to recipe. When shaping, divide dough in half. Let rest 5 minutes. Shape each half into a loaf. Place in greased 9 x 5 x 3” loaf pans. Cover; let rise in warm place, free from draft, until doubled in bulk, about 40 minutes. Bake in moderate oven (350°F) 50-55 minutes or until done.
