banana bread recipe
The riper the bananas the better, I've used this recipe with 1 and 2 bananas also but added some extra fruit (normally mixed dried fruit) to good effect too. I wish I could tell you how many bilberries to put in, I just threw a bunch in until the mix looked good! Also any sugar seems to work.
