The perfect afternoon tea.

Banana Bread with Cranberries and Sultanas.

Whilst I was at work the other day, My gorgeous girlfriend baked again for me. This time I came home to a lovely loaf of banana bread with cranberries and sultanas.

















Ingredients:
1 2/3 cup plain flour
1 1/2 tsp baking powder
1/3 cup caster sugar
1/3 cup brown sugar
1 tsp cinnamon
2 eggs, beaten
1 tsp vanilla
3 ripe bananas, mashed
optional: dried cranberries and sultanas

How to create:
- Oven to 160 degrees
- Sift the flour and baking powder, then add sugars and cinnamon, combine
- Add eggs, vanilla and bananas to the flour mix, stir well, add dried fruit here (if you want it)
- Pour into greased loaf tin and bake for 40-50 mins or until cooked
- Cool in pan for 10 mins, then cool on wire rack 


This is delicious served warm (you can re-heat a slice for 10 seconds in the microwave) and spread with butter and a drizzle of honey. 
Enjoy with a nice cup of warm tea.
