1/4 cup olive oil
1/2 cup or 4 ounce sugar 
2 eggs
3 over ripe bananas

In a mixing bowl add butter, olive oil, and sugar. Mix until light beige in color and it has a creamy consistency. Mix in one egg until combined and then the other. Mix in the bananas and smash with your fingers as you toss them in. Turn off mixer and then slowly add the flour mixed with the baking powder and salt. With a spatula, scrape batter into a bread loaf pan. Bake in a 350 degree oven for 45 minutes or poke the center with a toothpick, skewer or knife and if it comes out clean it is ready.
