NOTES:
* This recipe is from my friend Ayalla -- It makes a heavy, but moist, loaf of banana bread.
* If you use more than 3 normal-size bananas, I suggest that you lower the oven temperature and cook for a while longer. Otherwise, the crust comes out almost overcooked while the middle remains moist and almost undercooked.
: Difficulty: easy.
: Time: Preparation: 10 minutes; baking: at least 95 minutes.
Allow some time for cooling.
: Precision: Approximate measurement OK.
