Southern Style Banana Bread

Southern Style Banana Bread Recipe

This is an adaptation of a recipe I saw on a cooking show, tweaked to perfection. The recipe doesn't contain nuts, but they can be added to taste. The original recipe called for a caramel sauce and meringue, but I find that the tweaked recipe is delicious without them. I generally use a little less than 2 cups of flour when making this bread for density.
