I have eggs, flour, sugar etc but can only find recipes using butter! I have 4 brown bananas that I don't want to waste. TIA.

What about a more muffin type recipe? They tend to use oil.

Bananas
2 beaten eggs
250g plain flour
180g caster sugar
Orange zest
Cinnamon
1 tsp baking powder

Combine mashed bananas, eggs and orange zest. Then sift in flour/cinnamon/baking powder, add sugar,mix thoroughly.
I often add chopped chocolate/walnuts/sultanas/apricots, whatever I've got kicking about really.

Bake for about an hour in a greased loaf tin.

Oooh I want some now!
