1/2 cup vegetable shortening
1 cup sugar
2 eggs
1 cup mashed banana
1 tsp lemon juice
2 cups flour
1 tbsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 cup raspberry or strawberry jam
Cream together shortening and sugar. Add in eggs. Mix in bananas and lemon juice. Add remaining dry ingredients. Add jam. Grease and flour tube pan. Bake at 350 degrees for 50 minutes.
Notes:
*I use Crisco as my vegetable shortening
*I always use a regular loaf pan instead of a tube pan. The bread turns out just as well.
*Use raspberry jam! You'll be glad you did.
