    3 or 4 bananas
    1/3 cup melted butter
    1 cup sugar, can reduce this to 3/4 cup
    1 egg beaten
    1 teaspoon vanilla
    1 teaspoon baking soda
    Pinch of salt
    1 1/2 cups of all purpose flour

    Heat the oven to gas mark 4

    In a large bowl mix the butter into the mashed banana using a wooden spoon.

    Mix in the sugar, egg and vanilla.

    Sprinkle in the baking powder and salt and mix in.

    Add the flour and mix.

    Pour the mixture into a buttered 4 x 8 inch loaf tin and bake for an hour.



    I actually cooked mine for longer as I didn't think it was cooked after the hour.

    The children loved it so it's a great way to use up those speckled bananas
    If you use the silicone loaf tin you don't need to butter it, the bread comes out easily.

    i had four over ripe bananas so I doubled the quantity and made 2 so effectively used two bananas to the recipe.

    I was wondering the same thing.... no good at baking, everything comes out too thin, too crispy or too burnt, never heard of all purpose flour.

    All purpose flour is the American name for plain flour.

    Default Cost???

    Hi,

    I love Banana bread and made one the other week with one of the children I look after. Now I'm doing my accounts and wondering how much to put down for the ingredients?

    Any ideas?

    Thanks
