Easy Peasy Banana Bread
If you’re looking for a super easy, super delicious Banana Bread recipe then pop this in your book.
I nabbed this bad boy from Taste.com.au and have made it twice already. On both occasions it’s come out perfectly- even when I’ve snuck in additions like walnuts, chocolate chips and extra cinnamon.
It’s best eaten when still warm, or tastes even better toasted lightly under the griller with a smidge of butter.
Ingredients
- Melted low-fat dairy spread, to grease
- 265g (1 3/4 cups) self-raising flour
- 40g (1/4 cup) plain flour
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 140g (2/3 cup, firmly packed) brown sugar
- 2 overripe medium bananas, mashed
- 2 eggs, lightly whisked
- 125ml (1/2 cup) skim milk
- 50g butter, melted, cooled
Method
- Preheat oven to 180°C. Spray a loaf pan with olive oil spray to lightly grease. Line the base and 2 opposite sides with non-stick baking paper, allowing it to overhang.
- Sift the combined flours and cinnamon into a large bowl. Stir in the sugar and make a well in the centre. Mash bananas in a medium bowl. Add the eggs, milk, and melted butter, and stir until well combined. Add the banana mixture to the flour mixture and stir until just combined.
- Spoon the mixture into the prepared pan and smooth the surface.
- Bake in preheated oven for 45-50 minutes or until a skewer inserted into the centre comes out clean. Remove from oven and set aside in the pan for 5 minutes. Turn onto a wire rack to cool completely. Cut into slices to serve.
