Banana Bread & Zucchini Bread

I LOVE to bake! I also love to eat, so that is why I don't bake as much as I would like to!
On my "Autumn preparation" day, I decided it was a perfect time to make banana bread and zucchini bread. Plus, I had some bananas that were getting really ripe and one of my employees, Debbie, found me some giant zucchini at a farmstand for 50 cents! Thanks Debbie!

Banana Bread (I've had this recipe in my recipe box forever and am not sure where it came from)

2 1/2 Cups Flour
1 Cup Sugar
3 1/2 tsp. Baking Powder
1 tsp. Salt
3 T Vegetable Oil
3/4 Cup Milk
1 Egg
1 Cup Mashed Bananas

Preheat oven (350) and grease 2 bread pans. Mix all ingredients(thank you Mom & Dad for the awesome KitchenAid mixer-I love it!)and bake for 55-65 minutes. Serve warm with butter-doesn't get any better than that!

Zucchini Bread (Recipe from Mom)

1 Cup Veg. Oil
2 Cups Sugar
