The bake of lockdown.... banana bread

Updated: Apr 29, 2020

Banana bread.




I think the banana breadhas been the bake of the nation during lockdown! It makes sense as it avoids food waste from bananas and the rest of the ingredients are in the store cupboard! We don’t usually have bananas in the cafe as we use organic, local & seasonal produce. However, for our community food project we are using Fare Share as our core food supplier. It’s been exciting having different types of food in the kitchen. Fareshare redistribute surplus food. Tackling food waste & food poverty! We rescued these spotty bananas in to this nutritious breakfast bread! Our top tips are to add: oats, seeds, nut and other fruit if you have it to add lots of nutrients to a banana loaf.


Our favourite flours to use are a combination of buckwheat and almond for their nutritional values and makes it a gluten free loaf. 💕✨ Ripe bananas are super sweet so you don’t need to add much sugar. We suggest having this for breakfast with fruit & yoghurt.

50g almond flour
