Steph's Banana Bread Recipe
My Banana Bread Recipe tastes like a sweet treat, looks like a naughty nibble but I promise you it’s full of wholesome, healthy and nutritious ingredients that will be good for your heart as well as your waiste line.
It takes minutes to make and just under an hour in the oven so what are you waiting for, get baking!
Use organic ingredients as much as possible!
¼ Cup (50g) of brown sugar
2 medium free range eggs (1 yolk)
2 Cups (225g) Wholemeal self raising flour
4 large (rather) ripe banana’s
½ Cup (100g) of raisins
1 Cup of broken up pecan nuts
1 tsp of cinnamon
1 tsp of baking powder
3 tsp ground flaxseed
1 tsp honey
¼ Cup (50g) rolled oats
Directions
1. Preheat oven to 180C / 350F / Gas 4.
2. Line 1kg/2lb 4oz loaf tin with grease proof baking paper.
3. Beat up the eggs in a jug or bowl.
4. Squish the banana’s in a large bowl.
5. Add the flour, sugar, raisins, pecans, cinnamon, baking powder, ground flaxseed, rolled oats and honey in a large bowl.
6. Add in the eggs and bananas’s and mix it all together to form a damp paste.
7. Pour the mixture into your lined loaf tin and place in the oven for approx 1 hour or until golden on top and dry in the centre.
**To test, place a dinner knife in the centre of the banana bread and if fully cooked it should come out almost clean.
Keeps for 4 days!
Approximately 10/12 slices per banana bread loaf.

Hi Steph..just joined your group..love the bean/spicy fennel soup..I am a soup freak anyway, always have liked soup better than regular meals. My comfort soup is believe it or not..fresh skinned tomatoes( makes the soup base), Okra/white beans ( night before pre cooked) and apples(diced, ), cook apprx 30 minutes..I use green jalapeno sauce as a spice/white pepper and a dash of sea salt. especially good on a cold day..you can add barley to thicken if you wish...sometimes I will pour this over Shirataki ( rice noodles)...very low carbs,calories etc..cabbage can be substituted if you don't like Okra...let me know what you think...weedbychoice

Fennel helps to strengthen digestion, suppress appetite and as a result can aid weight loss. Try this recipe for Spicy Fennel and Bean Soup -> http://tinyurl.com/3ydb2bd

Say it with me "If it's not grown by the earth or raised on the land then avoid it at all costs because it's made by humans." This is my slogan for ensuring I stay on track with choosing the right foods, perhaps you can use it as your mantra to help guide you towards healthy diet choices too.

“Emotional Eating” seems now to be part and parcel of our highly demanding lives but you can take control and put a stop to Emotional Eating for ever!
Do you find it a struggle not to reach for some form of ‘comfort food’ every time you’ve had a bad day or someone’s caught you off guard?
I struggle to find any woman these days who’s not trying to juggle 10 things at once and focusing so hard on balancing everything that the one thing that gets left out is her own needs and desires.
The pressure is on you to be all things, to all people, except yourself right?
Well stick with me and I'll show you that with the right mindset, tools and support you can begin to accept food as the nourishing source it should be and not the emotional crutch it may have become.
