Banana Loaf

This banana loaf is moist and full of flavour.  It can be frozen very successfully so I usually make two at a time and freeze one for later.

500 ml flour

125 g butter

2 eggs, beaten

4 bananas, mashed

250 ml sugar

7.5 ml baking powder

5 ml bicarbonate of soda

1 ml salt

60 ml water

Cream butter and sugar together.  Add mashed bananas and beat well.  Add beaten eggs.

Sift the flour and salt and add to the mixture with bicarb dissolved in the water.  Lastly add the baking powder.  Spoon batter into a greased and lined loaf pan.

Bake in a moderate oven (180 C) for about an hour.
