Stella noted that she needed four bananas pureed for the recipe and used the leftover puree for a smoothie.

For those who don’t have self-raising flour, simply use two cups of plain flour, one tablespoon of baking powder and half a teaspoon of salt.

Leave the mixture to bake in the oven for 45 minutes or until the top is golden and a toothpick comes out clean.
