Banana Bread at home with Ash Costello

This recipe was provided by Sam from Barrio, which his kids love just as much as Barrio customers! A good recipe if you have chickens laying eggs in the backyard and everything else is probably already in the pantry. It’s a favourite at the Sam’s Braddon café. Ash – hbh collective

Ingredients:

• 3 ripe bananas
• 2 eggs
• 1/2 cup olive oil
• 1/2 cup honey
• 1 cup flour
• 1 cup almond meal (I suggest coarsely blitzing up whole almonds to get more texture)
• 1 heaped teaspoon baking powder
• Coupla tablespoons of spices (cinnamon, ground cardamom, ginger etc.)

Method:

1. Mash the banana, add the olive oil, honey, eggs, spices and mix.
2. Fold through flour, meal and baking powder.
3. Pour into a baking paper-lined loaf tin. Smallish loaf tin is best. Bake for 45-50 minutes.
