Children are difficult, parenting is hard, and if homemade cake should masquerade as bread, the world should not judge: Felicity Cloake’s banana bread.What is banana bread if not cake, in loaf form? But children are difficult, parenting is hard, and if homemade cake should masquerade as bread, the world should not judge.
After testing several recipes, Felicity Cloake concludes banana bread is “a good way to use up old fruit”, but overripe bananas are not strictly necessary. Her recipe is as easy as they come – use an electric mixer to combine the wet ingredients and sugar, add the dry ingredients and mashed banana, then spoon into a tin, and bake. It contains walnuts, so if your child’s school is a nut-free zone, leave these out.
