A few days ago I noticed my stash of bananas were starting to get beyond the point of eating. So I decided to make some banana bread. I'd never made any before so I hti up google in search of a good recipe.
I stumbled upon a blog (I cannot remember the name of it for the life of me!) that had this recipe and a little side note saying the person who wrote the blog post had been nagging her friends mother for years for the recipe.
If it's a mummy recipe, you know it's going to be good!
I am not too great in the kitchen, so the fact that even I am saying this recipe is foolproof and delicious, says a lot.
If I can do this, anyone can.
So I thought I would share this recipe with you all.
Here goes;
Pre-heat oven to 175 degrees celcius
Ingredients |
You will need;
cooling rack
loaf pan; greased.
4-5 bananas; smashed
1/3 cup melted butter
1 cup sugar
1 egg; beaten
1 teaspoon vanilla essence
1 teaspoon bi-carb baking soda
pinch of salt
1 1/2 cups plain flour
Add the melted butter first. Mix |
Add sugar, egg & vanilla essence. Mix. |
It should look something like this so far. |
Sprinkle bi-carb and salt on top. Mix. |
Add flour last. Mix. |
The mixture will go in to a batter & look something like this. |
Pour mixture in to greased loaf pan & bake for roughly an hour. |
Mine usually only takes about 45-50 mins.
I just keep an eye on how brown the outside is and do the clean knife test.

And Voila! You have your banana bread. |
I was so proud of myself for taking photos throughout the whole process and then once I had eaten a big piece, I realised I forgot to take a photo of the finished product in one piece, oops.
I also didn't realise that I don't actually own a cooling rack so I had to use a rack from my oven.
Everyone who has tried this has loved it, it's usually accompanied by 'I haven't had banana bread in years!'
It's a really good feeling when people enjoy you're cooking/baking.
I must do this more!
Let me know if you make banana bread using this recipe, I'd love to hear how it turns out.
I've already given it to 5 separate people who tried it and wanted it.
For those who want to just cut & paste the recipe, I'll re-write it here with no pictures.
