The only one I've got is the Edmonds Recipe Book one but it is done in 'slice' tins. Can I just use that and do it in one cake tin?

Cook in a ordinary cake tin. This is the recipe I use & fine. Otherwise check out l/h message board, enter banana cake & where it says date posted enter anytime.

I think noonesgirl is refering to the search function on the 'left hand' of the page ... type in banana cake & select 'anytime' ... you will find lots of recipes.

Having said that - I've just done a search for a recipe from here I've made several times now - it's very easy & very good! Originally posted by mackenzie2 - including her comments ...
Banana Cake
This is one I make all the time, and it is great. . Beat 3 eggs, 1. 5 cups sugar, then add 1/2 cup cheap oil and 3/4 cup sour cream & 3 ripe bananas beat all, then add 2 cups white flour 1. 5 tsp baking powder and 1 tsp baking soda Beat till nice and smooth bake 170 degrees for 1 hr I ice with white and dark choc I make this at work and it is the most requested of all, keeps really well I double and put one in the freezer. Enjoy. Sorry left out some info... I bake mine in either a high sided 22inch tin or if I want to strech the servings in a larger square.

Thank you Winnie for explaining the search function and the recipe above which sounds really nice. I want to make one tonight but won't be able to make the one you posted as don't have any sour cream, but will definitely give that a go next time.
Thanks again.

I feel silly now not knowing what noonesgirl meant by doing the search thing. It's ages since I've been on Recipes but I think I will be doing a lot of copying and pasting into a Word document now - Lol.
Thanks for all your help.

BANANA CAKE WITH CRUNCHY WALNUT TOPPING
125g butter 2 eggs 2 cups flour 2 tsp baking powder 1 cup sugar 3 bananas 1/4 cup milk
Place soft butter and sugar in large bowl. Mix until smooth. Add eggs then bananas. Add flour, baking powder and milk. Mix until flour is just mixed in.
Trick is don't overmix a banana cake otherwise it will go gluggy.
Spread into greased circle tin. (I use a bunt cake tin). Next add topping.
TOPPING

Melt butter and add remaining ingredients, combine together and drizzle over the cake.

Coincidence, I just searched bananas this morning and sour cream banana cake and choc yoghurt one were the 2 i printed off, hubby thought sour cream one first so it is in the oven as I type. Hopefully is as good as it sounds. Choc yoghurt one next time.

I have not made banana cake in a very long time. There are only one or two things from the Edmonds book I would make, one is the banana cake (made in a standard ring tin) and the Albert square. I have made a couple of others from elsewhere, but the Edmonds one is pretty good.
