Date, walnut and banana loaf

75g plain flour
75g wholemeal flour
1 tsp baking powder
half teaspoon mixed spice
teaspoon cinnamon
100g soft brown sugar
100g butter
3 mashed ripe bananas
2 eggs
100g walnuts, chopped
big handful chopped dried dates

Cream the butter and sugar

Add the bananas

Add the flour and dry ingredients

Add the nuts and dates

Bake for about 1 hour at GM 4 which is (I think) about 180 degrees - check in after about 50 minutes if it's fan-assisted. If it looks like it's burning on top put a piece of baking paper over it with a hole cut in the middle.

Variation - pecans and blueberries instead of the dates and walnuts :)
