Breakfast is one of my favourite meals of the day. It’s when I get to sit by myself enjoying the (hopefully) quiet morning & think through my day before things get busy. A healthy & filling breakfast is very important. This is one of my favourite recipes. It fills you up, it’s not too sweet & it’s delicious! It also freezes particularly well. Bananas are a good source of potassium, vitamin B6 & vitamin C (though this last one is probably lost during cooking). Walnuts are a wonderful vegetarian source of omega-3 fatty acids & have been known to lower cholesterol. Bonus!

Banana & Walnut Loaf
- 3 Bananas (the very ripe ones are best)
- 2 Free Range Eggs
- 3/4 cup of Soft Brown Sugar
- 2 cups Plain Flour (go for the organic kind!)
- 1 cup chopped walnuts (I buy ones grown in Australia as opposed to those shipped from California)
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 1 teaspoon bicarbonate soda
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- pinch of salt
In a large bowl combine the peeled bananas, oil & the two eggs & mash to your hearts content. Sift in the flour, bicarbonate soda, cinnamon & salt. Add the walnuts & sugar & mix till combined. Pour the mixture into a greased 21cm x 11cm baking tin a bake in a preheated oven at 180 degrees celcius for one hour. Remove from the oven an cool out of the pan. Or alternatively, eat it straight away because it tastes best when fresh ftom the oven! Serve warm with butter or cinnamon butter.
