Just spotted this recipe which looks fab (I’m vegan) and which I’ll be trying very soon. Banana recipes are great as I find they are very forgiving and versatile when it comes to measuring ingredients and fiddling around with the sugar level. I’ll probably cut back on the sugar and add more banana to compensate but will try the recipe as it is at first. Thanks for sharing.
