We usually buy this from the farmer’s market as this is my hubby’s favourite.We get small slabs of this banana bread and its usually finished the same evening. Last time we bought some bananas and I kept aside 3 so that they can ripen and I get to make the banana bread. I found the recipe from Katie Joel’s book and found it simple to follow.The cake turned out to be yummy and delicious and hubby was suitably impressed :)

Ingredients:

2 cups AP flour
3/4 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp baking powder
3 bananas mashed
