EGGLESS BANANA TEA BREAD

A robust, bursting with flavour Tea bread, high fiber and healthy too!, could you ask for anything more?For once I will just let the pictures do the talking.
The recipe below has been adapted from Martha Day's-Complete baking.
Makes 1 loaf
Ingredients-
  • Self raising flour-120 gms
  • Wholewheat flour-55 gms
  • Baking powder-1 tsp
  • Soft butter-40 gms
  • Castor sugar-50 gms
  • Skimmed milk-4 tbsp
  • Ripe bananas-2
  • Cinnamon-1/4 tsp
Method-
  1. Preheat oven to 180 C. Grease and line a 450 gm loaf tin.Sift flours and baking powder into a mixing bowl.Rub in butter until mixture resembles breadcrumbs.
  2. Stir in sugar, cinnamon, milk and bananas and mix.
  3. It will be a thick batter, spoon into prepared tin and bake for 45 minutes, let cool slice thickly and serve buttered.
I must admit I was apprehensive since the recipe did not call for any eggs, and I almost always add eggs to baked goods, but after baking this, I marvelled at the simplicity as well as the wonderful crumb and flavor of this bread, a good addition would be perhaps some walnuts :)
