Ingredients
225g self raising flour
1/2 level teaspoon salt
110g butter
170g caster sugar
110g sultanas
25g chopped walnuts
100g glaze cherries halved
2 eggs
450g very ripe [black skinned] bananas
Method
Preheat the oven to gas 4/180C/350F
Grease and line a 2lb loaf tin
In a large mixing bowl, sieve the flour and salt.
Rub in the butter [I grate it in and then crumble with my fingers]
Stir in sugar, sultanas, walnuts and cherries
In a separate bowl, mash the bananas, add eggs, mix well and add to main bowl
Mix everything well until the consistency is soft and slightly runny
Pour into the tin and spread evenly
Bake for 1.5 hours in the centre of the oven.
DO NOT OPEN THE OVEN DOOR DURING THE COOKING TIME OR THE BREAD WILL COLLAPSE.
Cool before removing from the tin and ENJOY
