This is a Delia special - an all in one recipe that I have tried and tested on many an occasion since finding it a while back

Ingredients
75 g soft butter
110 g caster sugar
1 large egg, beaten
225 g plain flour
2 level tsp baking powder
2 medium bananas, peeled
grated rind 1 orange (I have used a couple of drops of orange extract instead)
grated rind 1 lemon
50 g walnuts, chopped (I have successfully used brazil nuts)

Method

Pre-heat oven to gas mark 4, 350 ged F, 180 deg C

Grease a loaf tin, also line the base (I use a 2 lb tin)

Place butter, suger, beaten egg in mixing bowl, sift in flour and baking powder. Whisk together all ingredients - don't worry if it looks too dry at this stage.

Add mashed bananas, orange and lemon rinds and walnuts. Mix thoroughly and add to prepared tin.

Bake in the centre of the oven for 50-55 mins, until it is golden, well risen and springs back. Leave to cool for 10 mins then remove from tin.

Meant to be nice served with butter, but again, I can demolish one of these all to myself so I don't bother with the butter

I made this today and it's already half gone!!! I used lemon extract and the zest of a mandarin (in the absence of an orange LOL). Because my cooker is a bit slow it took 1hr 15 min to bake (in one of those long silicone loaf moulds roughly equivalent to a 2lb tin, but shallower). It's delicious - much better than most I've come across. :T

This is an adapted recipe - can't find it anywhere on net to link to

I tried this recipe this morning and it was yummy! Sounds very odd I know but if you like bread and butter pudding or french toast then it's quite similar really. Good for using up the end of a box of cereal

Serves 1 or 2 people (depends how much of a sweet tooth you've got)

knob of butter (for frying)
2 large eggs
1 tbsp milk
1 or 2 tbsp sugar (to taste)
approx 2 handfuls of cereal (cornflakes/branflakes/rice cripies etc)
cinnamon (to taste)

• Add butter in a pan and put on a low heat (I add a little bit of oil to stop it burning)
• Beat eggs, milk and sugar in a bowl
• Once butter is foaming, mix the cereal into the egg mix and add to pan
• Keep stirring until mix is cooked through (cereal will soften and break up - if you want it more crispy add it when the eggs are half cooked instead)
• Plate up and sprinkle cinnamon on top

You could also add vanilla extract or cocoa powder to the egg mix. I also thought a big blob of whipped cream or ice cream would finish it off well. Or a spoonful of nutella stirred through near the end.

I thought it was listed in Squeaky's Indexed Collections thread but I can't find it. I've put a link to it on the Complete Cooking Collection now. Too good to lose!
