Recipe - Banana Bread!!

Ingredients

285g/10oz plain flour

1 tsp bicarbonate of soda

1/2 tsp salt

110g/4oz butter

225g/8oz caster sugar

2 eggs

4 ripe bananas, mashed

85ml/3fl oz buttermilk

1tsp vanilla extract

Preheat the oven 180c/350f/Gas 4

Sift the flour, bicarbonate of soda and salt into a mixing bowl.

In a separate bowl, cream the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy.

 Add the eggs, mashed banana, buttermilk and vanilla extract to the butter and sugar mixture and mix well.(Don't the mashed bananas look really gross!)

 Your banana mixture should look something like this. 

 Then fold in your dry ingredients. (Flour, salt, bicarb)

 Make sure to grease your tin, then pour in your mixture. 

Place in the oven for an hour, or until golden brown. As you can see, I did a few muffin case sized ones, I also added dry fruit to that mixture. Liam doesn't like dried fruit, hence I didn't add it to the large loaf. 

If you are anything like me, whilst your banana bread is cooking, you will have to clean your kitchen! 

Once cooked you can enjoy your banana bread alone fresh out of the oven, or pair with ice-cream and toffee sauce for a delicious banoffee desert.
