Really forgiving recipe, I have made this dozens of times with lots of variations such as without eggs, just added a bit more baking powder or almost fat free by using 100g Quark instead of the oil. Also add nuts seeds and dried fruit ie walnuts and dates or pumpkin, sunflower seeds and apricot, scatter some on top and cover for first 30 mins of baking to prevent fruit burning. I always make it with wholemeal but it is light and moist. Excellent recipe

This is the best banana cake receipe I have ever made and tasted. It is so moist bad light. I've made two in the last 4 days. I just used normal sef raising flour as I had no wholemeal in but will try it this was too once I mind to by some wholemeal flour. Also plan on making with out the egg to see how it turns out. First one I did with teh electric whisk and the one I made last night was with a wooden spoon and was so quick and easy. Have shared this one in work today so I await the feed back. This is a sure keeper for me love it love it.

This is a great & very easy recipe. I made it even easier by just whizzing everything up with an electric mixer & I altered it slightly by replacing 25g of the flour with cocoa powder to make a chocolate banana cake - super yummy!

Quick and easy. lovely moist cake! brilliant when you have some bananas sitting about needing eaten. I double up the banana and lessen the sugar for a very moist fall apart cake.

I made this cake without the egg and using the Doves Farm gluten free flour. The whole family loved it and they asked me to make another one the very next day.
