This is a recipe i have used many times and is delicious if you want a bit of a change and you want to indulge yourself.My mum used to make this and now i do.This will make a 2lb loaf so plenty for everyone.

Ingredients:

250g self raising flour
Half of teaspoon of ground cinnamon
125g of butter or margarine (i prefer butter)
125g of soft brown sugar
2 large eggs
3 large bananas mashed
75g walnuts chopped
1 2lb loaf tin

Method:

1) Make sure you grease and line the loaf tin well and that way it won't stick when you turn it out.
2) Sift the flour and cinnamon together.
3) Cream the butter or margarine which ever one you have decided to use with the sugar until it is light and fluffy.
4)Beat in the eggs one at a time and then add the mashed bananas.
5)Fold in the flour and walnuts
6) Pour mixture into your prepared loaf tin.
7)Place into your preheated oven on180c or for gas mark4 for 1 to 1half hours.
8) When cooked leave it to cool for about 3 minutes before you turn it out onto a wire rack .

This is a lovely loaf and smells lovely when it is cooking ha!You have to eat this with butter ha! well i do and it's just a nice change and an easy recipe to do there is'nt loads of ingredients to find and if like me most of these things are in your kitchen anyway.So give it a go and enjoy.
