Banana Bread

The perfect morsel for afternoon tea. It is just sweet enough to hit the spot without ruining your appetite for dinner. I love the caramelised, almost burnt taste of the crust that gives way to the soft, pale, slightly bananary tasting inside. This always goes down a treat with my darling Dad, who's one of my biggest baking fans. He deserves a little credit here as he has been there from the very beginning of my baking journey and has endured his fair share of "flops". He is not one for mincing words and always gives me his honest opinion... It took several attempts (and much constructive criticism) to get this loaf just right, but i'm pleased I persevered as it is now a family favorite!
