Preheat. Preheat the oven to 170°C fan oven (190°C conventional / 375°F / gas mark 5).
Line the tin. Line a 2lb loaf tin (approx 23cm long x 11cm wide x 7cm high / 8” x 4” x 3”) with parchment paper.
Prepare the sugar. Use your fingers to rub any lumps out of the sugar.
Mash the bananas. Peel the bananas and add them to a large bowl. Mash them throughly using the back of a fork.
350 g ripe spotty bananas
Mix the wet ingredients. Add the sugar, peanut butter, coconut oil and milk to the bowl with the mashed bananas and mix everything together.
160 g soft light brown sugar, 125 g peanut butter, 110 g coconut oil, 50 g dairy free milk
Stir in the flour. Add the flour and stir together until just combined.
250 g self raising flour
Bake. Pour the mixture into the lined loaf cake tin and bake for approximately 55 minutes, until a knife or skewer inserted into the centre of the cake comes out clean.Note: When there are 10 minutes remaining I like to cover the banana bread with tin foil to stop the banana bread from browning too much, but this isn't essential. Cool. Let the banana bread cool in the tin for at least 10 minutes before removing it and placing it on a cooling rack.
