I have not really made the best effort to bake for a long time. I used to love it when I had more time and the kids were small, but now they are all grown up and half moved out and I work full time I just don't get the enjoyment or relaxation I used to out of it.
Whilst in lockdown I realised all those bananas i was ordering to keep us healthy each week were going off and getting wasted and I had no idea why! so I decided I needed to do something with them, we had tried bananas and custard one night after dinner, which kind of worked but realised I needed a cake, desperately.
I was going through my Facebook feed one afternoon and saw on my slow cooking group a brilliant receipe for the normal oven. This was a super quick and easy to prepare receipe and i like easy, so decided to bake it. I had about 5 bananas that were pretty ripe and the rest of the ingredients in my cupboards and it was amazing the whole family enjoyed it.
Here is the recipe below and honestly its just delicious so do give it a try.
Banana Bread Ingredients
100g butter
2 Eggs
125g Caster Sugar
225g self raising flour ( I use supreme sponge)
2 tbsp of milk
2 drops of almond essence
3 medium ripe bananas
Golden syrup to pour on top if you wish
Method
Throw all these ingredients into your mixing bowl but do sieve the flour to make it lighter. I use a kitchen aid mixer so I just set it on high for a few minutes till I can see its all mixed together. Then I pour it into a silicon loaf tin and put on a baking tray then put into a heated oven on 190 for a fab oven. I put some oven heatproof paper over the top for first 30 minutes to keep from burning then leave it for another 30 minutes and voila you have one delicious banana cake - put on a cooling tray for 15 mind or so and drizzle some golden syrup over the top before you serve.
