Ingredients

  • 150 grams light brown sugar
  • 3 bananas

  • 250 grams plain flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon bicarbonate of soda
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon ginger
  • 1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 85 ml buttermilk
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 120 grams unsalted butter, melted

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 170 degrees celcius. Grease and flour a 9X5- inch loaf tin.
  • Mash the bananas with a fork. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together sugar and eggs until well incorporated. Whisk in the mashed bananas and buttermilk.

  • Stir in the melted butter and vanilla extract and mix until combined.
  • Pour into the prepared loaf tin and bake for 1 hour or until a toothpick or skewer inserted in the centre comes out clean. 30 minutes into baking, loosely cover the bread with foil t o help prevent the top and sides from getting too brown. Leave tin to cool for 15 minutes, then run a knife around the edge and invert onto cooling rack.
