The Kitchen: Sourdough Banana Bread


With my Sourdough mixture working so well and with not much of a failure to make bread, I decided to get a bit adventurous.

I decided to make an attempt at Sourdough Banana Bread.

Rather than making a dough with the bread consistency I decided to create a batter that incorporating an egg, some starter, honey, a banana and a bunch of flour. After leaving it for a while in front of the heater to get the starter a little more active it was a simple transfer into a bread tin and into a hot oven.

All the measurements were guesswork so there’s not really a set recipe for this.

The final result was bread with a hint of banana and honey. Not too sweet in a sugary way but dense with a nice crust.

It still needs work but for an afternoon coffee this is perfect.
