One of my favourite home-baked goods is banana bread. The smell takes me back to my childhood instantly. Here's a great recipe for this traditional loaf. I hope you enjoy it as much as I do!
Ingredients
2 cups flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
1/8 teaspoon ground ginger
2 eggs lightly beaten
5 large bananas (mashed)
1 cup sugar
1/2 cup oil
Method
1. Preheat oven to 180 degrees (350 degrees F). Grease a loaf pan; set aside. In a large bowl combine flour, baking powder, cinnamon, salt, nutmeg, and ginger. Make a well in the centre of the flour mixture and set aside.
2. In a medium bowl, combine eggs, mashed bananas, sugar and oil. Add the egg mixture all at once to the flour mixture. Stir until moistened (batter should be lumpy). Spoon batter into prepared pan.
3. Bake for 60minutes. Cool in pan on a wire rack for ten minutes. Remove from pan. Cool completely on wire rack. Ideally store overnight before slicing (however, I can never wait this long).
That's it! Quick and easy xxx
