Banana and walnut loaf from Delia's How to Cook: Book One (page 133) by Delia Smith

Where’s the full recipe - why can I only see the ingredients?

Always check the publication for a full list of ingredients. An Eat Your Books index lists the main ingredients and does not include 'store-cupboard ingredients' (salt, pepper, oil, flour, etc.) - unless called for in significant quantity.

Notes about this recipe

    I make this banana loaf regularly when the ones in the fruit bowl are over ripe. I tend to omit the orange and lemon zest and only use a pinch of cinnamon which makes it more of a store cupboard recipe and the banana flavour really comes through. If the bananas are large I would only use three of them. The kids love it as a snack spread thinly with butter. Foolproof recipe!

    Although this is a very nice cake, it's got too many different ingredients which detracts from the banana taste. The orange zest, lemon zest and cinnamon makes it 'too busy'...and there is WAY too much walnuts in it. Lovely cake, but in search for the best banana cake.....this isn't it.
