This is moist and delicious with loads of banana flavour! Friends and family love my banana bread - it's wonderful toasted, too. Once you taste this, you'll never throw away those ripe bananas again!

  • Tweak: ClaraBella Used different ingredients:

    I added a teaspoon of cinnamon to this recipe. And i used golden caster suger (because i was out of brown sugar) and margarine (because i was out of butter). It turned out yummy :D

    Tweak: yummymummy27 Used different ingredients:

    I have made this today and I used Demerara sugar instead of dark brown sugar plus I added 1 tablespoon of set honey and a generous handful of roughly chopped walnuts to the mixture. I cooked it in my fan oven on 140c for 1hr 30mins.... It is truely delicious, so much so that I have just popped a 2nd one in to bake, i'm pretty sure cake no.1 will not last long!

    Review: hart0201

    This is delicious! I made it thinking no one else in the family would eat it (I'm the only one who likes banana cake/muffins), but they all ended up having 2 slices each! They even came up with suggestions for making it even tastier - adding walnuts, or a frosting! Will definitely make it again - it was very easy!
