I got this recipe from the husband of a good friend of mine, June. It is not your traditional banana loaf, but more like a fruit cake, moist and chock full of fruit and flavour!
Ingredients:
8 ounces self rising flour (225g)
5 ounces light muscovado sugar (150g)
1 lb ripe banana (the gooier the better, peeled and mashed)
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 eggs
6 ounces mixed fruit (candied cherries, raisins, sultanas, dried apricots, dick uses more, his loaf is stogged full of fru)
Directions:
1. Mix all ingredients together except the driet fruit.
2. Once thoroughly mixed, stir in the dried fruit.
3. Spoon the mixture into a greased 2 lb loaf tin, spread it out evenly and bake for 1 1/2 hours at 350*F (180*C).
4. The loaf is done when a skewer pushed into it's middle comes out clean.
5. Cool on a wire rack before slicing. My husband loves this loaf!
