Banana Breakfast Loaf V1

A nutritious and simple breakfast loaf using leftover ripe bananas with ingredients you probably have in the cupboards. Use sugar (75-100g) if you haven't got any syrup available - it will lead to a softer loaf rather than dense. Great start to the day when served with strained, high-protein yogurt and berries!
