As a kid, Mum used to cut a banana vertically down the middle from end to end (not all the way through, about half way into the centre). She'd then stuff the 'cut' with squares of chocolate (usually from a good old block of Cadbury dairy milk), wrap in foil and put on a low heat BBQ (usually while we were having the dinner from the BBQ). A few mins later we'd open the foil and scrape the hot choclatey banana over vanilla ice cream!

It's a flavor I'll never forget!!

Yum. I haven't done this in a while..

My favorite way to eat bananas is to peel & eat but I also really like the recipe already posted for banana & yoghurt muffins and yoghurt soft serve.

Banana breads/cakes don't usually do a hell of a lot for me for some reason...

Ohhh goodness Electro, that sounds AMAZING!!!

Thanks ladies - ive saved a lot of the recipes! I ended up making a hummingbird cake which im about to sample

[*melrose*]

Banana cake:

2 cups plain flour, 3/4 cup sugar, 2.5 tsp baking powder, 2 tsp cinnamon, 1 tsp ginger, 3/4 cup cream or milk, 3 eggs, at least 1 cup of pureed banana, 150ml melted margarine.

Mix dry ingredients, then add rest mixing well. Oil a cake tin, sprinkle with breadcrumbs, pour mix in. In the oven at 175 degrees for 50-60min. Cool for 10 in the tin before turning it upside down.

Hardest bit is leaving it alone for a bit! It tastes best at about day 3

. Yum going to bake this in the morning as i have lots of spare banana's left.

We use to make this when we were little and also in scouts, but added marshmallows in with the chocolate.

We did that when I was in Brownies as well - we also got an apple, cut the core out and replaced it with a Bounty, wrapped it in foil and tossed it in the fire. Sounds REVOLTING now, but I'm sure I loved it as a kid!

This is just like banana mud cake. To die for.

I love banana sliced thinly into a bowl, sprinkled with a tiny bit of raw sugar and then with a little bit of just slightly warm milk poured over the top.
DH thinks its but it's my ultimate comfort food.
