I told y’all I baked banana bread! Bananas are one of the few things that are equally as good in death as in life. In life they are a delicious snack that comes in its own convenient packaging. In mushy death they are perfect for smoothies and baking.
It looks like a cake because I left my loaf tin at work, which is weird because we don’t have an oven there. I looked at a few recipes and came up with this delicious hybrid.
You will need:
3 overripe bananas
4 tablespoons maple syrup
1 cup of sugar
2 cups self raising flour
2 eggs
About 100g of butter, softened
1/2 teaspoon of cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
Preheat over to 180 degrees celsius.
Grease and line a loaf tin. Mash the bananas in a bowl, add the maple syrup and stir in the sugar. Add the eggs, sifted flour, cinnamon, baking powder and butter and combine into a gluggy mixture.
Bake for about 45 minutes or until a skewer inserted in the middle comes out clean.
Eat warm with a giant cup of tea. My housemate and I did so while listening to Ella Fitzgerald. So romantic.
I adore anything with bananas in it, especially this!! Yum! Thanks for sharing!
Aren’t bananas the best?! (ps. the only way I can spell ‘bananas’ is by singing that Gwen Stefani song in my head! Haha don’t tell anyone)
Hahah you read my mind!! As I was typing the word before I was singing the song in my head 🙂 its the only way!!

It is really yummy, especially with butter on top! You should definitely try it out 🙂
Looks delish! I love me some banana bread, but.. how many eggs are needed? None are mentioned in ingredients but you say to add them in the directions 🙂
Whoops! Forgot to add that, thanks for pointing it out.
