2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon bicarb
1 teaspoon salt
225 soft brown sugar
25g walnuts
25g saltanas
2 ripe mashed bananas

Method: Sift flour, baking powder, bicarb and salt into large bowl. Add sugar, nuts, saltanas. Mix well, then add mashed bananas and beaten egg. Stir in grated veg and oil. Beat mixture thoroughly for one minute. (It will be slightly lumpy) Butter a 9inch cake tin or a large loaf tin. Put mix in tin and bake for 1 hour at 175C until skewer comes out clean from centre. Can be topped with sweetened cream cheese but is delicious as is or with a little butter. Enjoy
