  I have made this for the first time today it is gorgeous, like all the other comments though it did take about 15mins extra to cook and I only put in 50mls of the milk as the mixture looked a little sloppy before putting in the milk. will definately make this again

  This recipe tasted nice but the timings for cooking are defiantly wrong, it took at least half an hour more to cook in the end I had to take it out as it was starting to colour too much but it was still only just cooked in the middle.

  i recently made this delicious cake but i doubled the recipe to give my parents a treat. As it has a very generous ingredient list i actually made 3 loaf cakes , my daughter also loved her cake with a re-order already in. Gorgeous.

  Mixture was curdled after mixing, tried to rectify with flour but cake was very greasy when cooked. Something wrong with ingredients, methodology and cooking instructions in my opinion, far from foolproof. Most people who seem to be pleased with it seem to have left something out and cooked for far longer. Very suprised at all high scores when it doesnt work out when you follow the recipe. Maybe someone could work on this recipe until it does work properly but it wont be me, far better banana cake recipes out there.
