Ingredients

  • 125g butter, soft

  • 130g brown sugar, plus extra for sprinkling

  • 400g ripe banana, mashed with a fork

  • 3 eggs

  • 1/4 cup milk

  • 300g plain flour

  • 2 tsp baking powder

  • 2 pinches salt

  • 200g cashews, lightly toasted and roughly chopped

Method

  1. Pre-heat oven to 180C. Grease and lightly flour a 27cm x 12cm x 6cm loaf tin. Cream butter and sugar until light and fluffy.

    Add banana and combine. Add eggs one at a time, followed by milk, and stir until combined. Fold through remaining dry ingredients and spoon into tin.

    Sprinkle the top with brown sugar. Bake for 1 hour or until risen in the middle and a skewer comes out clean. Cool in the tin for 5 minutes before removing to a cooling rack. Serve with whipped butter. (To make whipped butter, whisk very soft butter with an equal weight of icing sugar until light and fluffy.)
