Banana Bread

This is a delicious and might I add a healthy banana bread. At only 4 pro-points a serving you can enjoy your cake and eat it too! Many Banana breads are high in pro-points and usually have a lot of both sugar and oil, this one doesn't and it doesn't contain any animal fats either.  With only a few ingredients that you are sure to always have on hand this is a great recipe to have in your box.  I really recommend trying it out, it's really tasty and even those who aren't watching what they eat are sure to be big fans!


Ingredients:

  • 225 gm All Purpose Flour
  • 100 gm Brown Sugar
  • 4 medium Bananas, mashed
  • 75 gm Vegetable oil
  • 3 teaspoons Baking Powder
  • 1.5 teaspoons ground Cinnamon
  • 1.5 teaspoons Mixed Spice
  • 50 gm roughly chopped Walnuts *Optional

Method: 

1. Preheat oven to 200 degrees Celsius
1. Mix Flour, baking powder, cinnamon, mixed spice together until well combined. 
2. Mix mashed bananas, brown sugar and vegetable oil together until well combined. 
3. Add wet ingredients to dry ingredients and mix until just combined (don't over mix or else your bread will become tough)
4. Mix in chopped nuts, until just mixed through 
5. Place in a greased and lined loaf tin and bake for 20 minutes, then reduce heat to 180 degrees Celsius and bake for a further 40 minutes (if the bread is becoming over brown on top place a piece of aluminium foil on top to stop this from happening)
6. Wait for it to cool and enjoy!
