A cake recipe that I've had some success with recently is this rather delicious banana and walnut cake. It's dead simple, and takes very little time to make. There's one in the oven right now!
- 450 g ripe bananas (weighed before peeling), mashed
- 125 g unsalted butter
- 150 g caster sugar
- 2 large eggs
- Half tsp vanilla extract
- 50 g walnuts, chopped
- 250 g self-raising flour
- Pinch of salt
Pre-heat oven to 180 °C. Lightly butter a 25x10 cm loaf tin. Cream butter and sugar together until smooth and pale.
Add eggs one at a time, beating well. Fold in mashed bananas, vanilla and walnuts. Sift in flour and salt and fold in.
Spoon mixture into loaf tin, and bake for one hour or until a knife pushed into centre of cake comes out dry. Cool in tin for at least 20 min before turning out.
My chocolate brownies have also been popular recently, this time with the University of Surrey Mountaineering Club!
