Day 11-Share your favourite recipe

I love to cook, I used to hate it, I do panic when cooking for many, I can manage about six, however I doubt I will ever cook a good roast, I'm best at a good curry...

However, my favourite recipe is banana bread, its absolutely gorgeous and I haven't made it for ages! I found it on the lurpack facebook page...
Ingredients

125g of lurpack (I use any butter, marge if I have to)
150g of caster sugar (I use just ordinary granulated)
1tsp vanilla extract
1 egg beaten
2 very ripe bananas mashed
190g self raising flour
60ml of milk

1. Grease and line a 2lb loaf tin. Melt the Lurpak, sugar and vanilla in a saucepan over a medium heat.
2. Remove from heat and add the mashed bananas, mix well.
3. Add the beaten egg then stir in the flour and milk.
4. Pour the mixture into the prepared tin, sprinkle with a tablespoon of demerara sugar for a crunchy topping. You can also add a few slices of banana to bake into the crust.
5. Bake at 170°C/340°F/Gas Mark 3 for 35 minutes, until a skewer comes out clean. Leave to cool and enjoy!

It is soo yummy, I double the ingredients (plus an extra banana) to make a nice big one, and I do bake slices of banana into the crust and just sprinkle with whatever sugar I have. It is lovely on it's own, or extra indulgent with butter on a slice, and after a few days when it isn't as fresh, it is amazing toasted with butter on. ooo im gonna have to make some now...
