Got this recipe ages ago in the Times by Gordon Ramsey - its a huge hit as its got a gorgeous cakelike texture. I had to type it up to send it round my family as they loved it to. DH loves it smothered in choclate spread.

Banana bread with Walnuts and Chocolate Chips
from Gordon Ramsey

Softened butter, to grease
150g plain flour
150g whole wheat flour
1 tsp baking powder
½ tsp baking soda
½ tsp fine sea salt
170g golden castor sugar
75ml vegetable oil
2 large free-range eggs
150g natural yoghurt
1 tsp vanilla extract
3 large (or 4 medium) very ripe bananas
50g walnuts, chopped
50g dark chocolate chips

1. Preheat the oven to 180C/Fan 160C/Gas 4. Butter and line a 2 litre tin (or 2 smaller tins). Mix all the dry ingredients, except for the walnuts and chocolate chip together in a bowl.

1. In another bowl, combine the vegetable oil, eggs, yoghurt and vanilla. Peel and mash the bananas with a fork, then mix into the egg mixture.

1. Fold the wet ingredients into the dry mixture then quickly fold in the walnuts and chocolate chips. Try not to overmix the batter to ensure a moist loaf. Scoop he batter into the prepared tin.

1. Bake for about an hour until a skewer comes out clean when inserted into the centre of the loaf. If the bread is not ready return it to the oven for another 10 minutes. Leave to cool in the tin for 10 minutes before turning out on to a wire rack. Cool completely before slicing and serving.
