Variations…
Banana & Choc Chips… Add 1/2 cup chopped chocolate (or choc chips) to wet mix, or 1/2 cup chopped walnuts or pecans may be used as well.
Banana & Honey… Puree 1 large orange and add this with an extra egg to wet mix. Increase flour to 2 cups. Substitute sugar for honey.
Banana & Mixed Fruit… Add 1 1/2 cups of any desired combinations of nuts and dried fruits to the wet mix. Chopped dried apricots, dates, pears, figs, saltanas (raisins with no accent), prunes or raisins are nice with the banana flavour.
