Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 120 g Butter
  • 150 g Sugar
  • 2 Eggs
  • 4 Bananas, ripened
  • 240 g Cake Flour
  • 2 ml Salt
  • 5 ml Bicarbonate of Soda
  • 30 ml Milk

Method
 

  1. Pre-heat the oven to 180°C. Use an electric beater if possible and whisk the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy. Add eggs one-by-one and mix well after each addition.
  2. Bash up the bananas and add the lemon juice. Sift the dry ingredients together and add to the butter mixture – alternating with the milk.
  3. Pour the batter into a well-greased loaf tin. Bake for one hour. Test with a thin skewer. When the skewer comes out dry, your banana bread is ready.

Notes

This banana bread will stay fresh for about 2 days in an airtight container. It also freezes well as a whole loaf or as individual slices.
