  • Blend on low for 20 seconds until mixed, open the blender and push down the mixture, then add the remaining flour.and blend for a further 10-20 seconds.
  • Open the blender, push down the mixture and add the raisins and the other banana, lightly mashed with a fork, stir them in with a spatula - DO NOT BLEND!

Notes

To make without a blender, mash the bananas, mix together the butter and sugar add eggs and bananas, then the flour and bicarbonate of soda, mix until all combined. Add the raisins and spoon into the tin. If you don't like raisins you could add nuts or seeds. You can also leave all of these out of the loaf and it will still be delicious.
