Ridiculously Simple Banana Bread

I've had this recipe forever - you can tell it's old because the 3x5 card is splattered and oiled and just plain groddy.  Occasionally I will add a little extra something: this time it was butterscotch chips.  You can see them melting and oozing from the top of the loaf:


Ridiculously Simple Banana Bread
Sift:
1 1/4 c. flour
1 t. baking soda

Mix:
2 eggs
1/2 c. oil
1 c. sugar (or less if your bananas are very ripe)
2 ripe bananas

1/2 c. chopped nuts-optional
1/2 c. chocolate chips- optional (I used butterscotch)

Stir flour mixture into banana mixture.  Then stir in the nuts and/or chips if you like chunky banana bread.  Bake in a greased and floured loaf pan in a pre-heated 350 oven for 50 minutes.
