Ingredients
- 1 cup oat flour you can grind the oats
- 1 cup rolled oats
- 3 very ripe bananas
- 200 grams melted margarine
- ¼ cup brown sugar optional
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
- ½ cup raisins or chopped almonds
- 2 large eggs
- 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
- A pinch of salt
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 180°C (356°F).
- Melt the margarine and let it cool.
- In a bowl, mash the bananas into a puree.
- Add brown sugar (if using, as bananas are sweet), margarine, vanilla essence, and the two eggs to the banana mixture. Mix well to combine all ingredients.
- Incorporate the other ingredients: rolled oats, oat flour, cinnamon, baking powder, and a pinch of salt. Mix gently with the rest. Finally, add the raisins or almonds.
- Prepare a baking tin by greasing it with butter and dusting with a bit of flour (to prevent sticking). Pour the mixture evenly.
- Bake at 200°C (392°F) for 40-45 minutes. Check for doneness by inserting a knife or toothpick. If it comes out clean and dry, it's done.
- Let it cool before removing from the mold. Decorate as desired and enjoy your delicious bread.
Enjoy!
