  I used a 2lb tin because it was the only one I had, expecting it to be way too big. The mixture only just fitted it! I am pleased to see a few other comments on that now as I thought it was just my mistake. Perhaps the recipe should also state how big the bananas should be also - we'll see how the cake tastes shortly!

  We love this cake. I think it is better for being left a day or two. So easy to make and delicious to eat. I took it on a long aeroplane journey as a relatively healthy snack for my kids.

  Made this tonight, as on mission to boost iron in my diet, substituted 50g of the plain flour for quinoa flour and added 100g raisins - hubby started eating it when it was still hot and loves it, tried some myself just now and have to admit it is delicious!

  A great favourite in our house! Like a previous poster I used dates instead of nuts and halved the sugar, plus I sprinkled the top with pumpkin seeds. Mine also took 1 hr.

  Really lovely - made it a few times now but with added mixed dried berries and haven't added the lemon glazing... fantastic different breakfast. I also freeze it... defrost the night before had no problems with it!

  First class recipe, but it does require a 2lb loaf tin. My first attempt overflowed onto the oven floor.

  Now baked this a few times, and the recipe is definitely foolproof. Perfect for using up bananas you'd otherwise throw away. You can leave out pecans or replace with walnuts. Wasn't sure about the lemon drizzle, but it does add a bit of zing to an otherwise quite solid and relatively plain loaf.

  I love this recipe so easy to follow and taste's really good! I make it every couple of weeks it is really good to make when you have banana's that are not at there best! I don't put the nuts in and I don't add the lemon sauce but it still tastes great and is gone in no time!
