THE VERY BEST BANANA CRANBERRY BREAD
A basic banana bread recipe taken from a cookbook I pilfered from my Mom. I added the fresh cranberries which makes for a wonderful combination of sweet and tart. Adding chopped walnuts really completes this recipe. The final key is to use really, I mean really ripe bananas. I freeze them once they are almost black and thaw when ready to use. They make the bread moist and sweet.

Steps:
- Cream shortening, sugar and vanilla. Add eggs and mix until blended. Fold in mashed bananas. Fold in dry ingredients. Lastly, add the cranberries and chopped walnuts. Pour into a greased 9 X 5 loaf pan. Bake at 350 degrees for 45 minutes to 1 hour. (Until knife inserted comes out clean).
- **I have used halved cranberries but found whole fresh cranberries work fine**.
- ** I also use dark brown sugar. It's just my preference.**.
