  • 3 ripe bananas
  • 200 g self-raising flour
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1 tbsp ground cinnamon + 1/2 tsp extra for dusting
  • 100 g chocolate chips

Instructions

  • Grease and line a microwave safe loaf pan with non-stick baking paper. Set aside.
  • In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs and caster sugar until pale. Add the vegetable oil and milk then whisk to combine.
  • In a smaller bowl, mash 2 of the bananas together until smooth.
  • Add mashed banana, self-raising flour, baking powder and 1 tablespoon of cinnamon to the egg mixture. Using a spatula or wooden spoon, mix until just combined. Fold through the chocolate chips.
