banana bread, cake or muffins?

Mrs_A_4

Ok after reading this thread I am desperate to use up the three brown bananas I have in the kitchen. However, having read the recipes so far I am asking for advice on a few potential tweaks, as I want to bake tonight without going to the shops and wasting more money to save money.

I have no eggs, bicarb, baking powder or SF flour. I DO have bread flour (!), raisins, butter, cinnamon and some cereals. I only mention the cereals cos I once made successful banana bread from a WW No Count recipe, that involved porridge oats and All Bran - sounds pretty gopping but was wonderful! :rolleyes:

Any suggestions as to what I could cobble together successfully in a loaf tin?

Has anyone got a good banana loaf recipe i bought a huge bag of bananas the other day for 30p but now they are turning so hope to use them in a cake.

This is our favourite -

165g sugar
1 egg
150g S/R flour
3 ripe bananas

mix together, pour into tin and bake for 30 mins, 180 C.

You could also add a chopped up mars bar which is delicious, and the other day i chopped up a bounty bar which my DS loved!!!

Hi pukkamum,

There's a very recent thread on banana bread with lots of recipes so I'll merge your thread with that one to keep all the replies together.

you don't have to use them all at once you can freeze some to use later

Yes, Freeze in skins to use later in banana bread
