Rub some oil around the inside of a 1kg/2lb loaf tin or insert a baking liner.
Put two of the bananas into a bowl and mash them with a fork.
Break the egg into the bowl and mix it with the banana.
Add the oil and mix well.
Tip the sponge mix into the bowl and stir until well combined.
Spoon the mixture into the prepared loaf tin, spreading it into the corners.
Cut the remaining banana into strips or slices and arrange the pieces on the surface of the cake.
Bake for 60-65 minutes.
Allow the cake to cool in the tin for 10 minutes before turning out onto a wire rack to finish cooling.
