banana bread, cake or muffins?

Good tip we found on here a while back, wrap the peeled bananas in clingfilm, and put them in the freezer, they come out like banana ice cream!!!! My DD loves them!!!!

Made some banana bread today and some flapjacks (added some peanuts, mixed spice and cinnamon as well to the ingredients - they're tasty.)
Will try freezing the peeled bananas next time - they sound nice to eat outside on a hot day (when we get another one!)

Hello,
Im quite new to this forum, though I have been looking in!
I am going through what hubby calls a "Nigella" phase and cooking everything from scratch.Today I made a pot of potato and leek soup( froze half of it for next time), made risotto at the weekend etc!
I would love a recipe for banana loaf, Ive had a look online but not really seen anything that grabbed me...do any of you guys have a favourite recipe you could share with me?
Thanks for your help,

Hello carol.
Welcome. Do you have a breadmaker? If so, I do have a nice recipe which I found some time ago on this forum.

Full marks to you for that Carol. I'm currently getting much more into starting from scratch myself.
However, if you ever feel like a lazy day I suggest the following BM recipe. It is fantastic and sooooo easy and everyone who tastes it loves it.
I'm afraid I don't know how to insert a link to a thread but if you do a search and type in Panasonic BM Banana Bread, you should find the recipe.
Just think, this would leave you more time for other hands on experiments.

I love banana cake too. My mum used to make one in the microwave but sadly she's been gone a few years so I can't ask her the recipe. Does anyone know of one? (I'd need to doctor it in any case as I am gluten free!)
