Having two small girls, I can say that we have definitely had our fair share of babycino’s and banana bread in many a cafe in town. This recipe is great to create at home and is the easiest and the nicest banana bread I have tasted. Make this, wrap it up in some kitchen paper and string and take it over for morning tea at your friends place. You will eat the whole thing in one sitting it is so good!
A weekly staple in our house. The girls love making it.
Best banana bread in the world
2-3 very ripe mashed bananas (I throw any really ripe bananas in the freezer from the fruit bowl so I always have them on hand)
1 1/2 cups plain flour (sifted)
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon bi-carb soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
125 gms softened butter (throw it in the microwave if straight from the fridge)
3/4 cup of sugar
2 eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/4 cup of milk
squeeze of lemon juice
Berries and natural yoghurt to serve, or simply serve warm or toasted with some butter.
Preheat oven to 165℃. Grease a rectangle loaf tin and line with baking paper so it doesn’t stick.
I throw all ingredients in to a large mixing bowl and let the girls mix, mix, mix with their wooden spoons. Pour in to the tin and bake for approximately 50 – 60 minutes.
Goofing around.
As Lo suggested this is the yummiest and easiest cake for little kiddies to make or husbands that have never baked before. Hopefully he makes it again!
