    salty honey banana bread with lavender sugar hazelnut crumble

    Uncategorized

    I know your probably thinking “really” do I need another banana bread recipe? And the answer is yes you do!.
     This banana bread was so good still warm and slathered in honey.

    The lavender sugar hazelnut crumble is the star of the recipe, it makes a huge difference to my normal banana bread recipe as i love the texture.
    I cut the amount of sugar I usually use in half and replaced it with honey then I added some salt i used half a teaspoon but feel free to experiment and add more.

    Recipe 
    2 over ripe bananas 
    150g butter 
    200g self raising flour
    200ml honey
    1/2 tsp salt
    100g brown sugar
    2 eggs
    3 tbsp milk
    Crumble topping 
    50g butter
    100g plain flour
    4 tbsp lavender sugar
    5 tbsp chopped hazelnuts 
    Preheat the oven to 180c 350f 
    grease and line a loaf tin 
    In a large bowl beat together the brown sugar and butter then add the eggs one at a time.
    Then mix in the honey and mashed bananas.
    Fold in the flour and salt then to loosen the batter add the milk. Pour into the lined loaf tin
    Make the crumble mixture by rubbing the flour and butter and sugar together then mix in the hazelnuts and sprinkle over the top.
    Bake for about 45 minutes.
    Enjoy still warm drizzled with more honey.

      Would really love to make this. I looked into conversions for the ingredients from grams to cups etc but found a lot of different values out there. I know "silly Yanks!" Do you perhaps have a US measure conversion for your recipe? Thanks for any help in this
