Love me some peanut butter and banana sandwiches. Why not banana bread? Wanna make it a true Elvis bread? Try adding some crumbled bacon into the mix.

pour into prepared 9x5 loaf pan and bake in preheated 350 degree oven for 1 hour. start checking bread for doneness at around 50 minutes. not sure why and it doesn't happen all the time, but sometimes if I let this go for the full 60 minutes it overcooks. so I just start watching it after 50
