Banana Bread

I previously made banana bread and it was a disaster..it looked good on the outside but the inside was just a whole load of goo. I should have taken a picture ha-ha, WHAT A MESS.

 Anyway that recipe involved orange juice and a lot of missing ingredients. This time, I decided to do it right as we had a load of bananas that were going to go to waste. I quadrupled the recipe as you can probably guess from the photos but the recipe below is for one batch :)

Preheat the oven to 160°C and line 2 x 1 lb loaf tins.

Ingredients

100g softened butter

175g caster sugar

2 eggs

2 medium bananas (or 3 small), mashed

225g self-raising flour

1 tsp baking powder

2 tbsp milk

25g walnuts, chopped

• add the butter, sugar, eggs, bananas, flour, baking powder and milk to a bowl - mix to combine.

• fold in the chopped walnuts and spoon the mixture into the prepared baking tins.

• bake in a preheated oven for 1 hour, until well risen and a skewer inserted into the centre of the cake comes out clean.

• leave to cool in the tin for 10 minutes and then cool fully on a wire rack.

PS - it was even more delicious toasted!
