2 browning medium bananas peeled & mashed with fork
1 large egg
130g self raising flour
1tsp baking powder
55g butter, softened, plus extra greasing
100g caster sugar
1) Preheat the oven 180C. Grease a loaf tin/cake tin with butter
2) In a large bowl, mix everything together, combining well with a fork. You may need to add a drop of milk to achieve a loose dropping consistency, depending on how mushy the banana is. (I put around 2fl oz of milk).
3) Pour into the tin and bake for 35-40min. Leave cool in the tin then turn onto a wire rack.
4) Serve with ice cream and you can dust some icing sugar if you want...
The riper the banana is the better...
Looks delicious. I wish I could make a delicious one. In Pinas, I knew a bakeshop and BANANA cake is their specialty. It was really lovely and always missed their banana cake. I am not sure what kind of banana they used as we have different kinds of bananas in Pinas. We have saba, la tundan, lakatan, saging na pula, green lakatan, senyorita and many more
You can make banana fritters here like what I used to do. Just buy lumpia wrapper at chinese store. Cut banana into two and wrap it with brown sugar inside. Then fry it.Banana-Q jim,I love them,I can last a full day eating nowt but Banana-Q,in Mindanao they are 3 pesos each.I think the most I had in a day was between 12-15
Saba, a kind of banana in Pinas is the best one for fritters but we don't have it here.
