Apple, Banana & Sultana Cake
Double gifts from the work café on Friday.
Apples & bananas.
CG: "Would you like a couple of bags of fruit? They won't be in good enough shape to sell on Monday."
Me: **ClapsHandsExcitedly**
Saturday morning & time to think about what to bake.
Not tried this before but let's combine the two.
Oven at 180C/160F/Gas 4
150g Light Brown Sugar
85g Butter softened
2 Eggs beaten
4 Bananas ripe enough to be mashed
2 Apples grated
40g Sultanas
250g Self-Raising Flour
1/2tsp Mixed Spice
1/2tsp Ground Ginger
1/2tsp Nutmeg
Butter & line a 2lb loaf tin & then you're ready for the off
The sugar & the butter need to be creamed together
Gradually add the beaten eggs
Stir in the mashed bananas, grated apples & sultanas
Flour & the spices are next
Mix together & pour into the loaf tin
Bake for 60 minutes but keep an eye & if it starts to darken too early, cover with some foil
Your kitchen will smell heavenly
Once out of the oven let the cake cool in the tin for 30 minutes
If you can wait that long, that is.
I'll be taking a slice in for CG on Monday morning.
