Combine dry ingredients in a bowl and set aside. In a large bowl cream together sugar and shortening, add eggs one at a time and beat until fluffy. Add flour mixture alternately with bananas and milk mixture, beating well after each edition. Add vanilla and nuts. Pour into prepared loaf pans. A loaf pan takes about 60 minutes at 350 degrees, four small loaf pans take 35-40 minutes. Remove from oven and let set 5-10 minutes and remove from pans.
