I recently purchased your Cook'n Recipe Software and love it! I have tried several other cookbook programs but found them unsatisfactory.

My main goal was to put my own recipes into a system that was easy and quick. I have put in about 20 so far, and I love it. It is so easy to use.

I have tried several of your recipes and they all have been wonderful!

Thank you!!

1. Heat oven to 350°. Grease bottom only of loaf pan, 8 ½ x 4 ½ x 2 ½ or 9 x 5 x 3 inches, with shortening.

2. Mix butter and brown sugar in large bowl. Stir in eggs until well blended. Stir in bananas, buttermilk and vanilla; mix with spoon until smooth. Stir in flour, baking soda and salt just until moistened. Pour into pan.

3. Bake 1 hour to 1 hour 15 minutes or until golden brown and toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool in pan 10 minutes. Loosen sides of loaf from pan; remove from pan to wire rack. Cool completely, about 2 hours, before slicing.

Patty N. shares her Recipe "I learned to be careful when I baked wearing my wig! I didn't know that hot air can burn the hair. I found the best thing to do is open the oven door, stand to the side and let out some of the heat first."

A NOTE from DR. GHOSH
You may have heard of the BRAT diet. Bananas, the B in BRAT, are a good food source of nutrients when severe diarrhea is a problem. Rice, applesauce and toast make up the rest of the acronym.

"Save your very ripe bananas in the freezer until you're ready to make this recipe. Thaw and mash, using all the liquid." -Patty N.
