Baking Banana Bread!


Hey everyone!

As Term 3 holidays are coming to a close, I thought it would be great if I made some Banana bread for school snacks. I have used this recipe before and it is super yummy/works really well! This recipe is great warm or cold with toppings such as butter or salted caramel sauce. 
*The batch I made in the photos down below is double the recipe ingredients*


~Ingredients~
~Utensils~
Method:

1. Preheat Oven to 160 degrees (325 degrees Fahrenheit) 


2. Place butter, sugar and vanilla extract in a mixing bowl and mix for 8-10 minutes until smooth and creamy.  Making sure to scrape down the sides of the bowl with a spatula.



3. Gradually add the eggs and beat well to combine. Be careful not to over beat this step!


4. Add the mashed banana, flour, baking powder, bicarbonate soda, cinnamon and golden syrup and stir until combined. Making sure to scrape down the sides of the bowl with a spatula. 


5. Spoon the mixture into a rectangular pan (around 26cm x 11cm), lightly greased with baking paper. (I filled mine a bit to full!)


6. Bake in the oven for around 60-65 minutes or until cooked when tested with a skewer. The top of the banana bread should be dark brown and the kitchen should also smell amazing! 


7. Cool the banana bread in tin for around 20 minutes before turning out onto a wire rack to cool completely. 


8. Slice and serve or freeze for a later date. 


There you have it- yummy banana bread! I served the sliced piece in this picture with butter. Comment down below if you have made this recipe or are going to make it!
