The banana bar recipe has been in my files forever, and I don’t know where I got it. It is very good and makes a large amount. I have used walnuts, pecans and almonds in these, generally using whatever nut I had on hand.
Steusel Banana Nut Bars
1 c. vegetable oil
1 c. mashed very ripe banana (2 to 3 medium)
4 eggs, beaten
1 t. vanilla
2 c. flour
1 t. salt
1 1/2 t. baking powder
1/2 c. chopped toasted nuts
1/2 c. brown sugar
1/2 c. flour
1/2 c. quick-cooking rolled oats
1 c. butter, chilled
In a large mixing bowl combine sugar and vegetable oil. Mix well. Add mashed bananas and beat until smooth. Add eggs and vanilla and beat well. Combine flour, salt and baking powder. Add to banana mixture and mix until smooth. Stir in chopped nuts. Pour into a greased and floured 10x15-inch baking pan. In a medium bowl, combine brown sugar, flour and oats. Cut in butter until particles are the size of small peas. Sprinkle mixture evenly over batter. Bake at 350 degrees for 25 to 30 minutes. Cool. Cut into bars and enjoy. Makes about 45 bars.
