Banana loaf is one of the most wanted treats we always look forward to. Gentle with a crisp, brown crust and an intense flavour of bananas, its just the just the thing for a perfect weekend breakfast, perhaps with a hot cuppa coffee. Yeah Just don’t expect for it to last for long! This recipe is incredibly easy to make and I absolutely loved the simplicity of this loaf, so moist and bursting with the fruity flavours of banana and the orange juice with a hint of cinnamon.

Butter for greasing,

Pinch of salt,

Sift the flours, sugar, salt and the spices into a large bowl. In a separate bowl mash the bananas with the orange juice, then stir in the eggs and oil. Pour into the dry ingredients and mix well.
Spoon into the prepared tin and bake in the preheated oven for 1 and ½ hour. Test to see if the loaf is cooked by inserting a skewer into the centre. If it comes out clean, the loaf is done. If not, bake for a further 10 minutes and test again.
Remove from the oven and leave to cool in the tin. Turn out the loaf, slice and serve.
