A friend put me onto this. It's amazing, all I eat is one square (granted they're big square's), and I don't scoff the whole block like I normally do!

Banana bread
2 large (or 3 small) banana's
2 eggs (you may need 3 depending on the kind of flour you use)
3/4 cup sugar
2 cups flour
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon bi-carb soda
Mash banana's and add whisked eggs. Combine with sugar, flour, salt and bi-carb soda. Mix well, transfer to baking tin (I use a loaf tin) and bake on 180 for about 50 minutes (my oven is broken, so it's hard to determine exact cooking times).
