tried this a couple weeks back and i'm another happy customer! will add perhaps just one more banana next time though! this is one of the most effortless thing i've made! thanks for the recipe!

Elaine, ur pic looks very nice, i like the 'shine' surface

I tried this yesterday since there were some ripe bananas at my mom's place that nobody wants to eat. I use 1/2 cup butter and the mashed bananas came up to almost 2 cups. Since I had already mashed it, I dumped it in anyway.

It came up to be a bit kueh-like, most prob due to the extra butter and mashed bananas. My mum, sister and picky son love it though. Thank you makan_kaki for the recipe.

You're welcome.

Made this again and this time I made 2 loaves as I had 4 ripe bananas - one with pine nuts and the other with blueberries. Both were nice but I have preference for the pine nut one while dh prefers the blueberry one. Most important was it was finished in no time!

Hi, I would like to try baking this during weekend and want to confirm the following concerns :-
1) No need hand mixer to beat the egg & sugar, just mixed by spatula/spoon?
2) Do I need to shift the flour & the baking powder?
3) If I were to substitute vegetable oil with butter, do I use 1/4 or 1/2 cup of melted butter?

Thanks & regards,
Evelyn

I wonder if I can replace banana with pumpkin?

Tried this out today.
Pinched some baking powder from a fren.
Added 75g of chopped almonds

Total time in my oven was 80 minutes

I covered the top with parchment paper when it was slightly
burnt after 45 minutes and lowered the oven temperature slightly.

After an hour, the centre was still slightly damp and I left it to bake
for a further ten minutes.

Smell wonderful and I couldn't resist, pinching the corner
off whilst it was resting on the rack.

The loaf is a bit hard but taste wise it is good, especially
the corners.

Makan_kaki, thanks for sharing the recipe.

Makan_kaki, baked this super easy banana bread several times by now.
It's delicious and my skill has improved too.

Thanks once again.

Hi, I have baked this for breakfast this morning! I used 1/2 cup of sugar but still find it too sweet. Maybe becos I used 3 banana... those very very ripe ones!

Thanks for the super easy recipe!

[hungrybear]

Yes, this is the only 'cake' I bake.

HI all

I made this last weekend, really v easy! the taste was great too. When it was baking in the oven, it did rise and was tall but during the cooling process, it "dropped" in height. Anyone can share why?

also, there seems to be lumps in the cake. is it suppose to be like that? i didn't mix till smooth and the batter was lumpy. is this correct?

thks and regards

Mine also drop slightly after taken out of oven but it still has a nice dome.

I used the muffin mixing method too - mix until just moisten only, batter was lumpy when it went into the oven.

Juz wanna confirm that the amount of baking powder used is 1 tbsp and not 1 tsp coz' 1 tbsp seems alot of baking powder leh...
