When I was on paternity leave I would bake a loaf of banana bread almost every day. It’s a go to bake and I love how easy it is to mix up flavours, by adding some chocolate or an additional fruit.
This recipe makes a good medium sized loaf for a small family. If you want to make it into a large loaf multiply the ingredients by 1.5.
Ingredients
90g Butter
90g Golden Caster Sugar
2 Medium Eggs
135g Self Raising Flour
1 tsp bicarbonate of soda
1 tsp cinnamon
2 banana
1 tsp Vanilla Extract
Method
Set the oven to 180°C
Melt the butter and then add the sugar and the eggs.
Mix well until the mixture is light and fluffy.
Sieve the flour, bicarbonate of soda & cinnamon on top of the mixture. Gently Fold.
In a separate bowl peel and mash the banana.
Add the banana and the vanilla extract. Gently mix.
Line a small loaf tin with greaseproof paper. Add the mixture and bake in the oven for 30 minutes.
Once baked evenly throughout, remove and leave to cool in the tin. Enjoy 🙂
