This old fashioned banana bread is a staple recipe in our household! So great as an afternoon snack, for busy mornings, or a dessert after dinner.
In a small saucepan or in the microwave, heat the milk until it just boils. Add the baking soda to the milk: caution, it will foam so make sure your cup or pan can accommodate it! Add this to the batter along with the baking powder, salt and flour, and beat again until just mixed together, scraping the sides of the bowl again with a rubber spatula.
Pour the batter into the loaf pan and bake for approximately 40 minutes, until a toothpick inserted into the centre comes out clean. Cool on a wire rack before slicing.
