Banana loaf cake

Updated: Apr 16, 2021

This deliciously moist, soft and rich banana loaf cake makes a great breakfast or a healthy afternoon snack.

This easy banana loaf recipe is a quick bake that can be frozen. It's great for using up overripe bananas, too.

INGREDIENTS:

  • 3 very ripe medium bananas (around 225gr peeled weight)

  • 3 eggs

  • 150gr soft light brown sugar

  • 150ml sunflower or vegetable oil

  • 275gr white self-raising flour

  • 2 tsp baking powder

  • 1/2 teaspoon ginger powder

  • 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg

  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

  • 1/2 teaspoon salt

  • 1 teaspoons pure vanilla extract

METHOD:

  • Preheat the oven to 180C degrees and grease and line one loaf tin with baking parchment

  • Peel the bananas and mash with a fork. Tip into a large mixing bowl and add the eggs, sugar and oil. Use a fork or whisk to combine

  • Add the flour, spice and baking powder and whisk together until thoroughly combined

  • Pour into the prepared tin

  • Bake for 40 minutes, or until the cake is well risen and a skewer inserted into the centre comes out clean

  • Cool in the tin for 10 minutes, then turn out onto a wire rack. Serve warm or cold in slices.



Tip: 
1. If you prefer before pouring the mixture into the prepared tin add a hand-full of chocolate chips, mix and simply increase the cooking time by 5–10 minutes
