BEST BANANA CAKE


I made this Banana Cake for morning tea on Sunday - best Banana Cake EVER. Just thought I'd share the recipe.


BEST BANANA CAKE

Ingredients:
1 cup mashed Bananas
125 g butter
3/4 cup dark brown sugar (firmly packed)
2 eggs
1 1/2 cups SR flour
1 teas bicarbonate soda
3/4 cup sour cream
1 tablespoon milk

Method:

Grease a pan
Cream butter and sugar in small bowl with electric mixer until light and fluffy, beat in eggs and then beat until combined.


Transfer mixture into a large bowl, stir in the banana. Stir in half the sifted dry ingredients with half the combined sour cream, then stir in remaining dry ingredients and sour cream, until smooth. Pour mixture into prepared pan. Bake in moderate oven about 1 hour, stand 5 minutes before turning out on to wire rack.

When cool, dust with Icing Sugar.

Daisy Throw

I had no idea it was so long ago that I blogged. Lots of things have happened since then - like the loss of one of our cherished friends.

I've just made this video and will try to upload it on here for you. If I can get this to work I promise lots more. There are so many ideas I have running around in my head, that all need to be put on paper and in pictures, so that you too can enjoy using The Butterfly Loom. Use any yarn of your choice. Sock yarn looks lovely. These daisies are so quick and easy to do, and look lovely all joined together as a Throw. Have fun.
