Nothing beats enjoying some fresh home baking with a cup of tea in the afternoon, especially if you're in need of a sweet pick-me-up. And banana bread is one of those low-fuss recipes that truly hits the spot every time. Many people tried their hand at baking one of these loaves during lockdown , but they've became a firm favourite ever since due to how easy and tasty they are.
The undisputed queen of baking, Mary Berry , is said to have created the 'perfect' recipe for a light and spongy loaf that's also packed with delicious chocolate chips. Even better, it only requires a handful of very simple ingredients that you probably already have at home, meaning there's no need to run out to the shops. Created for the Great Sport Relief Bake Off and shared on the BBC Good Food website, Mary's recipe has been a popular favourite for years.
The website states: " Mary Berry 's banana bread recipe is small, but perfectly formed and loaded with chocolate chips. You can double this classic loaf cake recipe if you have lots of bananas to use up." This loaf creates around 6-8 servings and bakes in around 45 minutes, with less than 30 mins to prepare, making it the perfect low-maintenance treat for yourself or for any guests you're having round.
It's great eaten cold, or warmed up with a little butter spread on top. Here's everything that you need to make it. Mary Berry's chocolate chip banana bread One ripe banana (peeled weight 100g/4oz) One tbsp milk 50g/2oz soft butter or baking spread .
