It’s been a while since I baked something, well, at least a week. I can’t bear to let a cake tin go empty! I thought I would make something delicious and healthy as Edward enjoys the odd slice of cake too.
Ingredients:
- 175g self-raising flour
- 1/2 tsp baking powder
- 150g caster sugar
- 3 eggs
- 3 ripe bananas
- 4 tbsp olive oil
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
Method:
Preheat over to 180°C/160°C fan/gas 4 and grease and line a loaf tin
Combine the flour, baking powder and sugar together in a large bowl. Beat the remaining ingredients in another bowl.
Stir the egg mixture into the dry ingredients. Pour the mixture into the loaf tin and bake for 1 hour.
Remove from the oven and leave to cool in the tin for 10 minutes before removing from the tin and leaving to cool completely on a wire rack.
Slice and enjoy!

June 25, 2011 at 11:51 amwhen I make banana bread it is always a bit dry, so I’m thinking the olive oil in this recipe will help make it more moist. Will have to try it out soon.
