Ingredients

7oz wheat free flour (self-raising)
2tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp bicarbonate of soda
2 1/2 oz margarine
1/3 cup agave syrup (or 2 1/2 oz sugar)
1 tsp cinnamon
4 ripe bananas mashed
2 eggs

Handy Hint

Can also cook in a round tin and use as a healthy birthday cake.

Method

Preheat oven to 180 degrees / gas mark 4.

Grease a 2lb loaf tin and sprinkle lightly with flour until the whole surface is covered. (Alternatively line with greaseproof paper.)

Sift together flour, baking powder and bicarbonate of soda and cinnamon.

Add the remaining ingredients and beat together with an electric whisk.

Or put all the ingredients in a food processor and mix together.

Put mixture in tin and bake for an hour.

It would have helped to have been given egg size and banana size! I used medium eggs and medium/large bananas. After 50 minutes I noticed the top catching a bit and did the skewer test- it wasn't cooked inside, so cooked it for the full hour. It was a bit dark on top but had risen well. No indication as to whether or not the cake should cool in the tin completely so I cooled mine on a wire rack after it had completely cooled as I know it carries on cooking a bit after removal from the oven and I wanted to make sure it was properly cooked. It's ok- more of a bread than a cake, quite good with honey on, though!
