As it was National Banana Bread Day yesterday, I thought it was the perfect excuse to make a banana loaf.
This recipe never fails, it’s so simple yet delicious and great for using up any ripe bananas.
Ingredients:
4oz margarine
6oz caster sugar
6oz self-raising flour
1 ripe mashed banana (use two if they are small bananas)
2 beaten eggs
Method:
Step 1: Preheat oven to 200C/180C fan oven. Line and lightly grease a loaf tin.
Step 2: Cream together the margarine and sugar. Mix in the beaten egg and mashed banana, then fold in the flour.
Step 3: Put the batter into the loaf tin and bake for 1 hour.
Step 4: Take out the oven and allow to cool slightly before serving.
Great served just warm out of the oven. Keeps fresh for a few days (that’s if it lasts that long).
Fantastic recipe Charlotte. Can’t wait to see more! When will that be???
Glad you like it. I’m in the process of adding more recipes. Going to get lots added this week. Next recipe will be a delicious tomato and basil risotto.
Mine is currently in the oven and smells amazing…Thanks Charlotte! Any recipes for sticky toffee pudding coming up?
Oh great- I hope you enjoy it! I’ve been meaning to put a sticky toffee pudding recipe on, I will put it on in the next few days.
