The banana bread tasted pretty good, although when I baked it it turned out raw in the middle and burnt on top. I had to try to rectify it by baking it for another 30 minutes, although it didn't seem to do much good. I followed the recipe to a T, although next time I would add more walnuts and maybe not mix it so much., approved=true, user_name=Haribol, hs_createdate=1702249851351, rating_new__1_5_=3, id=11175581458}, {comment_text=Made this today and it came out firm, very tasty warm with a little butter, look forward to remaking this again, approved=true, user_name=Genevieve, hs_createdate=1702249851273, rating_new__1_5_=5, id=11175550513}, {comment_text=Amazing.

Crust was nice and caramelised and the parts of the loaf that were cooked were tasty, however most of it is sloppy an inedible. May be an issue with the amount of banana, would be good if there was a weight or cup measurement for this., approved=true, user_name=Hannah, hs_createdate=1702249850070, rating_new__1_5_=2, id=11175465548}, {comment_text=Awesome, approved=true, user_name=chris cudd, hs_createdate=1702249850070, rating_new__1_5_=5, id=11175574637}]}

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.
