Ingredients

5½ tablespoon unsalted butter room temp
⅔ cup sugar
1⅓ cup all-purpose flour
¾ teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon baking soda
½ teaspoon baking powder
2 large eggs lightly beaten
1 cup bananas ripe, mashed (about 2)
½ cup chopped pecans
½ cup Maraschino cherries diced, optional

Instructions

Preheat oven to 350°F and butter a 9"x5" loaf pan.
In a large mixing bowl, beat the butter and sugar on high for a couple of minutes.
In a separate large bowl, whisk together the flour, salt, baking soda, and baking powder.
Beat the flour mixture into the butter/sugar cream mixture.
Slowly beat in the eggs.
Fold in the bananas, pecans, and cherries.
Pour into prepared loaf oven.
Bake in the oven for 45 to 60 minutes. Test with a toothpick. After inserting, it should come out clean. That's when it's done.
Cool slightly on a rack. Remove from pan and slice. Serve warm or at room temperature.
