Ten minute banana bread

In a hurry for a quick and easy to make snack? This banana bread takes just ten minutes to prepare, then pop in the oven for fifty and it's all yours, ready to devour! 


I found the recipe on this website: http://www.thefreshloaf.com/recipes/bananabread and the picture alone is enough to tempt you into baking it. So, pre-heat your oven to 180 degrees and get your ingredients together. 




Here's what you'll need....


Wet ingredients: 
1/2 stick of butter (softened)
2 eggs
2/3rd cup of sugar
2 or 3 very ripe bananas mashed


Crack in the eggs, break up the softened butter, pour in sugar and mash up bananas well before adding. Stick in a blender for 5-7 minutes or beat for ten until well blended. 


Dry ingredients: 
1 1/3 cup of flour
3/4 teaspoon of salt
1/2 teaspoon of baking soda
1/4 teaspoon of baking powder
1/2 teaspoon of cinnamon (optional - it does make it taste great though!)


* Additional ingredients you could add are walnuts, raisins or pecan nuts. 


Combine the wet and dry ingredients until well blended, stick in blender or beat by hand for ten minutes. Grease and line a loaf tin, pour in ingredients. 


Bake at 180 degrees for fifty minutes, check at regular intervals - stick a skewer in the middle and if it comes out clean, then it's ready to be eaten!
