KOACH Recipe:
Grandma Mollie Slusky’s Banana Bread Recipe
By Becky Adelberg
KOACH Field Worker
Ingredients:
½ cup of butter
1 cup of sugar
3 mashed bananas
2 eggs beaten lightly
2 cups of flour
1 tsp. of baking soda
1 tsp. of cinnamon
Directions:
Cream butter and sugar. Add eggs. Add the rest of the ingredients and mix
well with a wooden spoon. Grease a standard loaf pan and line with wax
paper. Pour batter into the pan. Cook at 350 degrees for 1 hour and 10
minutes.
This recipe is in memory of my Grandmother Mollie Slusky. Grandma Mollie was a
phenomenal cook, among many other things. She was an inspiration to all those
who knew her. She lived her life in Winnipeg, Manitoba as an active member and
President of Hadassah. She was also one of the first women there to receive a
bachelor’s degree. She was a teacher, primarily for 5th grade
students, who still talk about her to this day. She would often make this banana
bread so that when guests came over, they would have something delicious to eat.
She truly exemplified the Jewish obligation of Hakhnasat Orhim or
hospitality.
