I had 4 bananas to use up, made it 1.5 times the recipe and used the 4 bananas as I wasn’t sure if I had enough flour. Came out really delicious. Have been using the packet mix from a well known NZ meal kit delivery service. That’s really tasty but this is just as good if not better. Without having them side by side it’s hard to say. Certainly cheaper to make from scratch. I will make this one from now on. I actually make it as a square cake and mini loaves if any left over. Took only about half an hour to cook cake tin. We prefer chunks rather than sliced like bread. That’s why I cook it this way, personal preference.

Method

Preheat oven to 180°C bake. Grease and line a loaf pan (approximately 22-24cm x 13cm).
Beat butter, Chelsea Caster Sugar and Chelsea Soft Brown Sugar together until pale and creamy. Add eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition.

Sift in flour, baking powder and cinnamon. Stir a couple of times to partially mix in.

In a separate smaller bowl, dissolve baking soda in milk. Add to butter mixture with bananas and walnuts, if using. Mix until combined.

Pour batter into prepared loaf pan. Bake for 1 hour or until a skewer inserted in the centre comes out clean. Leave to cool in tin for 10 minutes before turning out onto a wire rack.
