Serves:
6 to 8

Step 1: You will need

  • 500 g ripe bananas, mashed up
  • 120 g soft butter
  • 85 g sugar
  • 85 g brown sugar
  • 2 beaten eggs
  • 2 tbsp dulce de leche or condensed milk
  • 220 g self raising flour
  • 65 g walnuts
  • 70 g chocolate chips
  • 1 Mixer with the flat beater attachment
  • 1 Rubber spatula
  • 1 loaf pan buttered
  • 1 wooden skewer

Step 2: Preheat the oven

Set the oven to 180 degrees centigrade or gas mark 4.

Step 3: Blend the ingredients

Using your spatula spoon the butter into the mixer bowl, follow with the brown sugar, white sugar, then lower the whisk attachment into the bowl and blend on medium speed for a few minutes. Then slow down the speed and slowly add in the eggs, the mashed bananas, the dulce de leche and slowly begin to add the flour, shaking it in little by little then add in the chocolate chips and finally the walnuts.

Then switch off the blender, lift up the whisk head, scrape the mixture off the attachment, take it off and remove the bowl. And using your spatula give it one final quick mix by hand.

Step 4: Transfer to the baking tin

Pour the batter into the tin using your spatula spread the mixture into the side of the tin.

Step 5: Bake and check

Place the baking tin into the centre of the preheated oven and bake for roughly 55-60 minutes. You can check to see if it's ready by piercing into the centre of the cake with a skewer. It should come out dry and if so, remove the banana bread from the oven.

Step 6: Serve the banana bread

Allow to cool before cutting and serve with fresh cream! And that's how to make a delicious banana bread cake, the Video Jug way! Enjoy!
