This morning I have been on ‘home duty’, Jeff has gone back to school to do some prep for next week, so I have been in charge of the children and this morning I wanted to give them my undivided attention. I asked them what they wanted to do – Sam “nothing”, Sophie “cooking.”
So with a fruit bowl over flowing with over ripe bananas, it was decided that Banana Loaf would be a good choice.
Sophie loves to cook, well to be honest, when in the mood both children do.
I do, when I have time.
I don’t enjoy the ‘it’s 5.00pm – what shall we have for tea cooking’ but I do enjoy a morning in the kitchen with no time pressure.
Whilst it was in the oven, Sophie started perusing my old cookbooks for her next cooking session.
We used a Delia recipe - always works -and a hour later, we had not one but 2 yummy Banana Loaves
Sophie's verdict - smiles, so all good.
My verdict - well the proof is in the eating - delicious!
Mmmmmmmmm! I love Banana cake.

Yum! I love banana cake but mine is always rubbish so I stick to making other cake and buying banana cake. I bet Sam enjoyed the cake even if he didn't fancy making it ;)
ReplyDeleteI don't like banana cake which is why I make such a lot of it! I have EIGHT sitting in the freezer just now!
ReplyDeleteJust caught up with recent travels and activities, no idea how you manage to blog too!

fab! as you know i've been baking banana and oat bread recently - always a hit! I, too, am not a fan of 'what to cook tonight' meals but every now and then i cook up a storm in the kitchen because i can! back to school next week means firing up the slow cooker again. As CK says 'best invention EVER!'.
