  I added an extra egg, and left in the oven just a little longer. This produced a deliciously moist loaf which kept really well.

  Just Amazing! Like mentioned before, don't forget to add the milk... Possibly the best banana loaf I've ever eaten!

  The recipe says 50 ml of milk in the ingredients but not in the actual method. Where exactly does the milk go in? Didnt notice this til it was all in the oven!!

  This cake has become a firm favourite in my house. I sometimes use choc chips instead of walnuts for a change and it's delicious. It comes out lovely and moist every single time.

  A couple people asked about the milk and I realised I never had a problem with it... Just re-read the recipe and at the end of step 2 it says "Now mix everything together, including the nuts" That's where you add your milk :)

  Read through the previous comments and I think the consistency / success of the cake can depend on how big and mushy your bananas are! My cake turned out fine, a drier rather than a moist cake - it didn't have the slimy texture of some banana cakes that I have known (ok made) - and I didn't add any extra milk.

  Raging debate about the milk --- another suggestion however, would be to add creme fraiche as an alternative to milk --- gives the mix a silkier and slightly richer texture.....

  Made this for the first time yesterday, used dried cranberries instead of walnuts - very happy with the results. The ladies in the office certainly enjoyed it! Will definitely make it again next time I have left over bananas.

  worked great for me, really easy, think it does just need 3 big-ish bananas not 4. Didn't have any walnuts so added chopped dates and chocolate instead - delicious!

  Absolutely delicious. I followed the recipe exactly and the cake was moist and very tasty. I only needed to bake for 50 mins although I can't see that leaving it in for the last 10 mins would have done a great deal of damage.

  Mine is a little too moist, so I think 4 bananas is perhaps too many. It tastes as it should, but the texture isn't great for me. There are much better banana bread recipes out there, that I find work better.

  This is delicious! I made a 'healthy' version with wholemeal and spelt flour, using agave syrup and it was lovely.

  Beautiful flavour! Gorgeous toasted with the choc sauce and custard or ice cream. Dense and slightly under-cooked looking in places.

  Left a goo on the bottom and collapsed. Very disappointing. Mixture is way too dry at first.
