Banana cake

Line a bread tin and set the oven to 160ºc. Poppy first made this cake from a recipe she found. A couple of small changes, and suddenly a new favourite!

  • 140g softened butter (room temp)
  • 140g caster sugar
  • 2 large eggs, beaten
  • 140g sr flour
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 2 very ripe bananas – mashed

Whip the butter and sugar together and add the eggs. fold in the flour, baking powder and bananas.

Get the mix into the oven as quick as you can to give the soda as much opportunity to make bubbles in your cake as you can . Cook for about 30 minutes, until a skewer comes out clean. Let it cool a fe minutes in the pan then turn out.

If you want to decorate the top you can add a little icing and or banana chips, or a little chocolate. it doesn’t need it though..
