What you will find on my blog...

I've created this blog as a means of sharing my stories and the recipes I have learned, use and love with all who may be interested. I am passionate about encouraging and helping people to create delicious, quick and easy food for the table during our busy mid-week lives.

It is not about being the best cook or being an expert or making everything from scratch, it is about sharing what I know and learning from others. After all, I've learned just about everything I know from someone else!

I love to feed people, it makes me happy and it makes them happy too. (although let's not discuss my children and food!)

I will also include information about specials and events happening at Recipe for Life, which encompasses my Saladmaster and Domestic Goddess Essentials business.

Enjoy!

Chocolate banana bread or muffins


Ingredients

2 cups self raising flour
125g butter
¾ cup caster sugar
4 ripe bananas, mashed
2 eggs lightly beaten
½ teaspoon vanilla extract
175g good quality dark chocolate chips

Method

Preheat oven to 180C

Mix the butter, sugar, banana, eggs, vanilla and chocolate chips together in a bowl.  Sift flour over banana mixture and combine gently.  Do not over mix.

Pour batter into a lightly greased and floured loaf tin (approx 19 x 11cm) and bake for 1 hour and 15 minutes or until cooked when tested with a skewer.  Cool in the tin for five minutes before turning out onto wire rack.  Serve warm in thick slices spread with butter – yum!

This recipe is great prepared as muffins.  I usually do mini muffins which take approximately 18 – 20 minutes to bake.
