I have been using this recipe for years and it always turns out well.
Banana teabread
Ingredients:
7ozs self-raising flour, 1/4 level tspn of bicarb of soda
1/2 level tspn of salt, 3 oz butter, 6 oz sugar, 2 eggs beaten, 1 lb bananas, mashed, 4 ozs coarsely chopped nuts.
Method:
Grease and line a loaf tin 8 in. by 4 1/2 in. (top measurement) Sift together the flour, soda and salt. Cream the butter and sugar, add the eggs and beat well. Add the bananas and beat. Stir in the flour and nuts. Turn the mixture into the prepared tin and bake in the centre of the oven at 350 degrees F (mark 4) for about 1 1/4 hour., until well risen and just firm. Turn out and cool on a wire rack.
You can mix some banana mash into some cream cheese and icing sugar if you want to decorate the top. Use a fork to make a pattern on the top. Hope you enjoy it. :D busy_lizzie
