Banana bread help

Posts: 77 Forumite
Hello I have been Reading the recipes and have a few black bananas but am a bit stuck, I have plain and sf flour, no bicarb and only muscovado sugar, can I still make banana bread with this lot ? Thanks for Reading x

Do you have butter/margerine?0

Have you any baking powder? If so, I'd use plain flour and add two teaspoons of baking powder to it. (Bicarb is one of the components of baking powder, along with cream of tartar - you just might need a bit more baking powder to get enough bicarb, if you see what I mean.)
Muscovado should be fine, the banana bread will be a bit darker and richer than normal but that's not necessarily a bad thing

Wow quick replies thankyou I have lots of eggs and marg but def no baking powder. I have sachets of yeast .... Oh dear I think I need to sort my cupboards haha
I also have some squirty sugar I bought reduced called sweet freedom it's ingredients seem to be all natural fruit extracts and it says to use in baking instead of sugar ? X0 -
You'll be fine without baking powder, just use the sr flour. I'm sure it'll turn out yummy.

I have tried to make banana bread using sr flour rather than plain with bicarb. Didn't work at all. Very dense and couldn't even rescue it with custard.
Hope it works for you though!Father Ted: Now concentrate this time, Dougal. These
(he points to some plastic cows on the table) are very small; those (pointing at some cows out of the window) are far away...
