Hello hello!
One of the easiest and yummiest snack- this is. Since it has a fruit-banana- it is comparatively healthy, I would even count it as eating my fruit of the day :D. I love banana bread, it is invariably the best use of those bottom of the bowl bananas which have been left too long and squished too much. I usually end up baking it on Saturday mornings and snack on it all weekend then! What fun!!
230 grams plain flour
150 grams granulated white sugar
1 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp baking soda
1/4 tsp salt
1 tsp ground cinnamon
2 eggs, beaten lightly
110 grams unsalted butter, melted and cooled
3 ripe bananas which comes out to be about 1 and a half cup
1 tsp vanilla extract
100 grams slightly toasted and chopped walnuts
Pre-heat the oven to 180°C.
Grease and line a loaf tin or a 9″ cake tin.
In a bowl, mash-up the bananas. Add the eggs, cooled butter and the vanilla extract.
In another bowl mix together all the dry ingredients flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon and walnuts.
Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredient bowl and fold it in with a wooden spoon or a spatula. Do not over mix it, just enough so that the mixture is still chunky and streaky.
Scrape the batter into the prepared tin.
Bake for about 45 -50 minutes or till a skewer comes out clean.
Cool on a wire rack-can be eaten warm or cold.
My house fills up with the amazing smell of the baking banana every I time make this!
Thanks for visiting! Do let me know how you get on with it.
