  • 2 large eggs
  • 50 ml any kind of milk

Baking Instructions

  • Preheat your oven - 180°C / 160°C fan / 350°F / gas mark 4.
  • Grease and line a regular loaf tin.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together your oil and honey until combined.
  • Add in the eggs, whisking again until smooth.
  • Add the mashed banana, the vanilla and the milk and whisk it up again.
  • Add your flour, raising agents and salt. Mixing again until completely combined. Careful not to over-mix though, as this can result in a heavy bread!
  • Pour the mixture into your prepared tin.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for 50-60 minutes until risen, firm, and a skewer inserted into the centre can be cleanly removed.
  • Allow the bread to cool in the tin for about 15 minutes before cooling completely on a wire rack.
  • Enjoy!

Notes

If you don't have honey, golden syrup would also add a great flavour! For gluten free, swap out the plain flour with oat flour or a gluten-free plain flour blend.
