    Just used up the 4 baby bananas which were smelling all pear droppy and almost walking out of the door!

    Was an ounce or so under on the butter and a couple of ounces short on the flour.....so I've experimented and added about 2 ounces of SR flour that I found lurking to the mix........it's inthe oven now!!! (even if its a disaster, I was going to chuck the bananas anyway!)

    I'll use the over ripe pears from my other thread in something tomorrow night.......

    Yummmm. I made a gorgeous Banana, Walnut & Choc Chip cake from here a few weeks ago (think it was posted by Queeny?!!) - it was soooooo nice. Although I am reluctant to make it again as I will scoff the whole thing :0) - could eat it right now infact. Yummo!!.

    *adds to shopping list: 1lb loaf tin*

    Have 3 very ripe bananas at home I was hoping to find a purpose for... I only eat them when they are just turning from green to yellow and OH would only eat them if they were in cake form I think :D
    Failling that they can go in the wormery I have being delivered today or tomorrow :)

  • Bought some bananas in bulk but have half a dozen looking the worse for wear, thought of making banana sponge cake with them but not sure on what point I add the bananas:confused: to the flour eggs and sugar and how long to bake for. Anyone have any tips/a good recipe? Thanks MSErs
