Ingredients

3 medium bananas over-ripe is best
2 eggs
80g butter melted and cooled
1 tsp vanilla extract
160g porridge oats
60g chopped walnuts (optional)
Pinch of salt
1 tsp baking powder

Instructions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 180C / Fan 160C

Step 2

Mash your bananas together in a large bowl (the riper the bananas are the easier this will be.)

Step 3

Add the eggs, melted butter and vanilla extract. Mix together well.

Step 4

Add the oats, baking powder and salt to the bowl, stir well to ensure the ingredients are fully combined.

Step 5

If you are using walnuts add them to the mixture now and stir gently, you can also use pecans instead or add some chocolate chips instead of nuts.

Step 6

Pour the mixture into a lined baking tin, a loaf tin is ideal but use what you have.

Step 7

Bake for approximately 40 minutes or until it looks golden on top.

*This will keep for a few days in an airtight container.

If you prefer a smoother consistency you can blend your porridge oats in a food processor to make an ‘oat flour’.

If you have more bananas that are over-ripe try slicing them and freezing the slices. Add to smoothies, blend in a food processor to make banana ice cream, or save for when you want to cook this recipe – simply thaw and drain the excess water before mashing.*
