Hi guys, today I'm going to show you how to make an amazing banana bread.
First thing you have to do, is you have to grease this tin so you're going to take
a kitchen cloth, and you're gonna just take a small amount of butter and rub it
around your tin. So there you go nice and greased.
So you've greased the tin and now we're going to cream our butter
and then I'm going to show you how to do it.
So we do this to make it fluffy and smooth, and to get some air into it.
So, we use a spoon and we just beat it and you mix it together. Make sure your butter is nice
and soft so it's easier to smooth down. You can use a spatula to get the
butter off the sides.
So now I'm going to give my hands a wash.
Next you're going to crack two eggs into the butter.
Oh my god a double yolker!
These eggs are from my own chickens, it looks a bit like scrambled eggs.
So when you're mixing it in, don't worry if it looks a bit lumpy, at the end it all come together.
So now we're gonna add our bananas, the browner the better.
You don't need a knife you just smush them up into the mixture.
This is a great way to use up manky old bananas, they're not bad.
So you get yourself a fork, and you just use the fork
to push down the bananas and smooth them down. Keep going until it's all mushed in
because there's no sugar in this we're gonna add a bit more sweetness.
You need about two tablespoons of honey.
There we go, next we're going to add two tablespoons of apple juice.
Save the rest for later.
Next we're gonna mix it all together.
Next we're gonna add our dry ingredients. You need 250 grams of self-raising flour
is it all of this?
I'm gonna use a spatula to fold it in, so different to mixing it we're folding it.
So we keep all the airing inside of it, this is how you fold.
It's making my arm ache a bit but it's gonna be worth it.
Now we're going to add a big pinch of cinnamon
see how all the ingredients have come together now.
So now I'm going to add these pecan nuts, pecan nuts?
These nuts, you can use the cross chop method. How you do
this is, you put one of your hands on top of the knife and the other hand
on the handle and just move it around. It's a good method because it's very safe.
If you don't wanna use a knife you can crush them up with a rolling pin or
you can crunch them in your hand. So different things that you could add are
peanuts, walnuts, hazelnuts, chocolates, chocolate chips, dried fruit, dried mango
aren't dried raisins dried grapes? Raisins dried bananas, oh yeah and chocolate.
So now you're going to add these chopped up nuts to your mixture, there we go.
I'm going to mix that in
and that's it, and now we're gonna have a little cleanup.
So now this is all mixed in, you're going to pour this mixture into this tin.
So we're going to hold it like this, and we're going to pour the mixture.
So get all the mixture off the sides and into the tins, now we're going to use a
spatula to smooth it out. Now we can add some toppings, you can do whatever
topping you like but I'm going to add some chopped bananas. So you can do this with a
blunt knife, or you can do it with an adult.
That's gonna be about enough and here
we're just gonna sprinkle them on top, so we're just gonna put about six on.
So there you go, it's got a bit of a gap at the top because it's gonna rise
in the oven. Now we're gonna go and bake it.
So this is my banana bread, it's been cooled on a drying rack and it's ready to be eaten.
I'm going to cut two slices.
That's what it looks like inside.
So you can spread anything in it really, you can spread chocolate spread, you can spread honey, jam
really anything you can think of. So now we'll have a taste
This is my impression of Daddy eating.
I'm embarrassing myself.
It's super easy and I want you to have a go, upload your pictures and videos to instagram and
hashtag kitchen buddies. Now let's go and take some to my sister, bye guys!
