Steps:
- Cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy.
- In another bowl mash up 1-2 bananas (we used 1 1/2 ) then fold them into the butter and sugar.
- In a separate mug whisk two eggs together and add to the mixture.
- Fold in the flour and baking powder.
- Melt the butter in a small pan over medium heat and add the cocoa powder.
- Pour the chocolate mixture into a separate bowl with the sugar in and mix well.
- Add another two whisked eggs and mix. Fold in the flour and baking powder.
- Put one spoonful of chocolate mixture into a 20cm deep round tin then a spoonful of banana in next to it. Repeat multiple times until all the mixture is in the tin. You should now have a spotty pattern. Take a metal skewer and draw figure-eights in the mixture. It should now have a marbled look.
- Cook in a gas mark 5 / 170c fan preheated oven for 45 minutes or until golden and a skewer comes out clean.
- When cooled sprinkle with banana chips and / or cocoa powder.
BANANA BREAD WITH SPLENDA
I worked with a few recipes until I came up with this one... It is a recipe that evolved into this. Its usually gobbled up pretty quick and last xmas I gave out loaves that were all the rave. I hope you'll try it and enjoy it also. It's not "low sugar" but rather "reduced sugar".

Tips:
- Use ripe bananas: The riper the bananas, the sweeter and more flavorful your cake will be.
- Measure your flour correctly: To avoid a dry or dense cake, use a kitchen scale to measure your flour. Alternatively, use the spoon and level method: spoon the flour into your measuring cup and level it off with a knife.
- Cream the butter and sugar until light and fluffy: This will help to incorporate air into the batter, resulting in a lighter and more tender cake.
- Add the eggs one at a time: This will help to prevent the batter from curdling.
- Do not overmix the batter: Overmixing can result in a tough, dense cake. Mix the batter just until the ingredients are combined.
- Bake the cake until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean: This is the best way to ensure that the cake is cooked through.
- Let the cake cool completely before frosting: This will help to prevent the frosting from melting.
