Recipe - Banana Bread

I've decided to add Recipes as one of the pages that run across the top of this page because as parents we always need to provide food for our children, but, unless you're a Jamie Oliver in the kitchen, thinking about what to prepare for them, in ideally a short amount of time, can prove to be a challenge. 

I definitely 'suffer' from this, added to the fact that I don't particularly enjoy cooking because of the amount of time that it takes, any recipes that are quick and tasty get a thumbs up from me. 

I'm starting with a simple yummy one that can come in very useful when you suddenly realise that your bananas are losing their bright yellow colour (something that seems to happen all too often!)

Banana Bread

Ingredients

• 2 bananas
• 2 eggs
• ½ cup milk
• 50 grams softened butter
• 1 ½ cups self-raising flour*
• ½ cup plain flour*
• ½ cup brown sugar*
• Pinch of cinnamon (optional)

Method

1. Preheat your oven to 180 degrees Celsius
2. Grease a baking tray/muffin tray
3. Add all the dry ingredients* into a large bowl and mix well (you can use an electric mixer or do it by hand)
4. Add the milk, eggs, butter and bananas to the above and mix together
5. Place the mixture into the greased tray
6. Cook for 40-45 minutes

That's it! It's really simple and makes for a great snack for all the family.
