    Who mentioned adding sugar to the greased pan? I tried it and it was
    great, thanks. I had a bunch of bananas, so I made Banana Nut Bread and
    Vernon's Good Pie.

    Banana Nut Bread

    1/2 cup butter
    1 cup brown sugar
    2 eggs
    2 cups mashed bananas (6 bananas)
    2 cups flour
    2 teaspoon baking soda
    1/2 teaspoon salt
    1/2 cup walnuts (I used 1 cup)

    Preheat oven to 325 degrees (F). Lightly grease a 9x5 inch loaf pan. In
    a large bowl, cream together butter and brown sugar. Stir in eggs one at
    a time, mixing well after each egg. Add the mashed bananas and stir
    until well blended.

    In a separate bowl, mix the flour, baking soda and salt and walnuts then
    add to the dry mixture to the wet mixture, stirring just until
    moistened. Pour batter into prepared loaf pan. Bake in a preheated
    oven for 1 hour and 20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into
    center of the loaf comes out clean. Allow to cool for 10 minutes, then
    turn onto a wire rack.

    I did. When making a chocolate cake....dust your pan with cocoa
    powder....eliminates the white flour look around the edges.
    .....oh...and when doing layers.....turn the layer upside down on your
    platter and you will have a perfect flat surface for your icing,
    frosting, fruit filling, etc.

    I'm new here, have really enjoyed browsing, and would like to contribute
    this recipe. Not Banana Bread per se, but it does include bananas with lots
    of other good stuff and is delicious. The UBC in the name is the University
    of British Columbia in Vancouver where the recipe was developed. No idea
    what Ponderosa refers to! It's pretty sweet so I usually cut back on the
    sugar, but then I do that with most dessert recipes.

    UBC Ponderosa Cake
    1 C (250 ml) butter
    2 C (500 ml) sugar
    2 large eggs
    1 t (5 ml) vanilla
    3 C mashed bananas (about 4 bananas)
    3 C (750 ml) all purpose flour
    2 t (10 ml) baking powder
    2 t (10 ml) baking soda
    1 C (250 ml) dairy sour cream
    1 t (5 ml) ground cinnamon
    ½ C (125 ml) brown sugar
    1½ C (375 ml) chocolate chips

    Cream together butter and sugar
    Add eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition
    Add vanilla and mashed bananas
    Mix until smooth

    Combine flour, baking power and baking soda
    Add to banana mixture alternately with sour cream, ending with dry
    ingredients

    Spoon and spread half the batter into a greased 9x13 inch baking pan

    Combine cinnamon and brown sugar
    Sprinkle half the mixture over the batter in the pan
    Top with half the chocolate chips

    Repeat layers

    Bake at 350oF (190oC) for 50 to 65 minutes
    Can be halved ( but why would you want to?) - use 8" square pan

    This morning I would have baked this recipe, if I had it. Your UBC
    Ponderosa Cake sounds delicious.

    BTW, I used 2 cups of mashed bananas in my Banana Nut Bread this
    morning, and it took 5 bananas. This recipe uses 3 cups of mashed
    bananas, so it must really taste like bananas. I can't wait to try it.

    How far do you cut back on the sugar? I'd like to try this, it sounds
    very good!
    As for the Ponderosa-all I can think of is the Ponderosa Ranch, home of
    the Cartwrights?
