i just sliced and froze my banana loaf kept a few slices out for after work tonight tho
Its a really easy recipe although i not sure where i got it from so apologies if i am nicking someone elses recipe :rolleyes:

Banana loaf

7oz plain flour
1 level teaspoon baking powder
1/2 level teaspoon bicarbonate soda
4oz caster sugar
2oz margarine
1 egg
a little milk
2 bananas

basically i just seived the flour, baking powder and bicarb into my food processor then added the marge and sugar and blitzed. Then added the rest of the ingredients and blitzed again. Finally added a little ground mixed spice and blitzed again :rotfl:
bunged in a loaf tin and cooked on 190 for about 1 hour

HTH

ETA - i am sure you could bung in some raisins or choc chips if you wanted a bit of a change x
