Easy peasy banana bread
I'm one of those cooks who is not very good at following recipes (or any kind of instructions for that matter) and much prefer to improvise with what I have in my fridge and cupboards. This is probably also why I cannot bake to save my life! However, banana bread (cake, muffins) is the only thing I can bake as it's sooo easy. When I bake for the kids, I usually make this minus the sugar (especially as bananas have its own naturally sweet flavour) and not as much butter but when I bake for friends or fancy eating some of my own homemade bakes, this is a recipe I use.
