Chec cu banane (Banana bread)

Banana bread este un desert pe care trebuie neaparat sa il incercati. Cu cat sunt mai coapte bananele, cu atat mai aromata va iesi aceasta prajitura. Asadar, daca zariti in fructiera banane ce incep sa se „bronzeze”, you know what to do :)

Ingrediente:

• 200g faina
• 100g unt
• 3 oua
• 100g zahar brun*
• 3 banane medii
• 50ml lapte
• 1 lgt praf de copt
• 1/2 lgț bicarbonat de sodiu

Mixam spuma ouale intregi cu zaharul, adaugam apoi untul topit, laptele si bananele pasate bine cu furculita. Incorporam usor cu o spatula faina, praful de copt si bicarbonatul.

Turrnam compozitia intr-o forma de chec tapetata cu hartie de copt si o introducem in cuptorul preincalzit la 170C aprox 50-60 de min. Neaparat verificati prajitura cu o scobitoare, cand iese uscata e gata. Foarte buna cu un pahar de Lacrima lui Ovidiu :) Pofta mare!

*Baby-friendly: omiteti zaharul, dulceata bananelor e suficienta pentru pitici :)
