I'm hooked on sharing sugary delights... I have two pages on facebook

For the whole wide world of English speakers out there, native and otherwise, I also have a Facebook page appropriately titled
top of the world cakes. Find me there, if you dare :)

And for those lucky few of you out there who understand Icelandic (I'm not joking there are only about 300.000 people in the whole Icelandic nation) I have an Icelandic Facebook page, just look for veislu kökur http://www.facebook.com/veislukokur

What to do with a Brown Banana?

Well you make banana bread...
Obviously.

There comes a time in the life of every banana when it just doesn't look good anymore. It's been left too long sitting on the table or in the fruit basket.
Brown, not Yellow...
It's just lost that appealing glow.

That's OK.
Don't throw it out.
Just make some really sweet banana bread.

Here's how...

You will need:

1 Egg
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp baking soda
150 gr. flour
100 gr. sugar
3 brown bananas mushed up real good








Then you:
Beat the egg and the sugar together, you want to get a smooth light yellow batter.
Add the mushed up bananas and fold into the mix.
Then the flour, baking soda and salt.
Roll it around so it's nice and even.
Pour it into a baking mold.




Bake in oven (where else?)

Heat the oven to 160°C

Bake for 35 to 40 min.


Attention!
You will know it's ready when you attack it with a knitting needle, knife or other prickly object, jabbing it in the middle of the now brown and crusted bread as it lays basking in the heat of the oven, if the object you have chosen comes out moderately clean, albeit a little sticky, you have done well my young padawan and the bread is ready for consumption.
Smear generously with butter, add cheese, and eat while warm.

Happy Banana-baking

Let me know how it turns out :)
