Step 1

Heat oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4.

Step 2

Butter a 2lb loaf tin and line the base and sides with baking parchment.

Step 3

Cream 140g softened butter and 140g caster sugar until light and fluffy, then slowly add 2 beaten large eggs with a little of the 140g flour.

Step 4

Fold in the remaining flour, 1 tsp baking powder and 2 mashed bananas.

Step 5

Pour the mixture into the prepared tin and bake for about 50 mins, or until cooked through. Check the loaf at 5-min intervals by testing it with a skewer (it should be able to be inserted and removed cleanly), as the time may vary depending on the shape of your loaf tin.

Step 6

Cool in the tin for 10 mins, then remove to a wire rack.

Step 7

Mix 50g icing sugar with 2-3 tsp water to make a runny icing.

Step 8

Drizzle the icing across the top of the cake and decorate with a handful of banana chips.
