  • 2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
  • 5 tbsp maple syrup (or honey)
  • 150 ml soya milk (or milk of choice)

  • Pour the mixture into a loaf tin.
  • Peel and slice the banana lengthways before placing neatly on top of the banana bread. (This is optional but looks really nice)
  • Place in the oven for 45-50 minutes until nicely golden. Be sure to keep an eye out because all ovens vary.
