Directions
In large bowl, mix 1¼ cups flour, ½ cup sugar, salt and undissolved yeast.
Heat evaporated milk, water, and margarine to 120F-130F. Margarine need not melt.
Add to dry ingredients; beat 2 minutes at medium speed of mixer.
Add eggs, banana, and 1 cup flour; beat at high speed 2 minutes.
Stir in pecans and enough remaining flour to make stiff dough.
Knead 8 to 10 minutes. Set in greased bowl; grease top. Cover; let rise until doubled, about 1 hour.
Punch dough down. Divide in half; shape into loaves.
Place in 2 greased 8½ x 4 ½ x 8½ inch loaf pans. Cover; let rise until doubled, about 1 hour.
Mix remaining sugar and cinnamon. Brush loaves with melted margarine; top with sugar mixture.
Bake at 375℉ (190℃) 25 to 35 minutes. Cool.
