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.

    This is a simple but quite flavorful banana bread.the bananas come out to be about two normal sized cavendish bananas.I added ~2 tsp vanilla paste (double). Salt calls for 1/4 tsp but I added 3/4 of Diamond Crystal kosher and it seems correct.butter is 114g. Flour is 250g. Cooking time definitely needed to be extended. Count on doing the extra ten to 15 minutes at 325F. I topped it with powdered sugar blitzed with salt and lemon zest. This comes closer than anything else I have tried to the version at my local bakery, teaching me less is more sometimes. So the trick isn't adding extra spice Or exotic ingredients.
