Banana Cake

I baked the cake when I was having a mild head ache. I thought of stopping but then I was in the middle of baking it. Well, here's the recipe.

Ingredients

  1. 75g (1/3 cup) softened butter
  2. 110g (1/2 cup) unrefined (golden) caster (superfine granulated) sugar
  3. 1 large beaten egg
  4. 225g (2 cups) plain wholemeal (all-purpose) flour
  5. 2 level tsp baking powder
  6. 4 ripe bananas


Method
  1. Grease and base-line a loaf tin. Heat the oven to 350F.
  2. Put butter, caster sugar and egg into a bowl. Sift in flour and baking powder. Using an electric mixer, whisk until thoroughly combined. Add the grated lemon and orange rind if using.
  3. Slice the bananas into another bowl, and mash to a pulp. Add to the flour mixture, along with the walnuts and whisk again thoroughly.
  4. Spoon the mixture into the tin or cases and bake until risen and browned, and springs back when pressed with a finger. A loaf takes about 50 minutes. Muffins take 15-20 mins.
  5. Leave cake to cool in the tin for 10 minutes before turning on to a wire tray.
