Banana Cake

My favourite Banana Cake recipe. Great for banana chocolate chips muffins too. Made these for my children many times when we had too many ripe bananas! !

Preheat oven 350 degrees F.

Ingredients
1 1/2 cups sugar
1/2 cup shortening or vegetable oil
1 1/2 cups mashed ripe bananas (4 or 5)
2 eggs slightly beaten
1 tsp vanilla
1/4 cup milk with a few drops of lemon juice
2 1/4 cups flour
2 1/2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
1 cup chocolate chips (optional)

Directions
Mix together sugar, oil, bananas, eggs, vanilla, milk and lemon juice in one bowl.
Then mix together flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt in another bowl.
Add flour mixture a little at a time to banana mixture. Add chocolate chips if using.
Mix well.  Put in 13x9 pan, greased and floured. Bake 30-35 minutes.
