banana bread, cake or muffins?

Dollardog

Thanks keza, that's the one off the website I think, but not the one I had. Good of you to add it though.

5oz caster sugar
2oz butter or margerine
2 eggs
2 ripe bananas
pinch salt mix and cook at gas3-4 for 45 mins in a 2lb loaf tin

Ok, I have bought and misplaced and re-bought bero books over the years, and my newer one has the recipe as shown on the website, but as it happens, I was browsing through my old one last night and it does have a slightly different recipe.... not sure if its the one you're after because this book is from the 80's, but here goes anyway:

Hazelnut and banana bread

200g SR Flour
125g demerara sugar
1/2 tspn salt
75g margarine or butter
2 eggs
1 tblspn golden syrup
100g hazelnuts chopped
450g banana
1tblspn milk

Method:
1. Mix together flour, sugar and salt. Rub in butter.
2. Mix in eggs and syrup. Stir in nuts.
3. Mash banana's with milk. Add to mixture and stir thoroughly.
4. Place mixture in well greased and base lined 2lb loaf tin.
5. Bake for 75 mins at 180 c, 350 f, gas mark 4.
6. Cool on wire rack. Wrap and keep 24 hours before slicing.




Fingers crossed its the one you remember, if not good luck on your hunt and I will trawl my other cake books to see if there are any more.

Thanks for this ,I have used different banana cake recipes and this one is really tasty!! My dh loves sultanas so I mixed double the amount and added sultanas to his half instead of hazelnuts...turned out good..well he has eaten most of it I also sprinkled a little caster sugar over the top before putting them in the oven, gives it a slight crunch. Hope you don't mind my altering things a little:)
